  • Everlasting High
    BeatTracker #7 Feat. New Releases in Downtempo

    Everlasting High

    Helene Rickhard , Thomas Grodal , Marianne Johansen

    Beatport New Releases

    Hot on the heels of Helene Rickhard's debut album comes its twin, Everlasting High. A beautiful, atmospheric counterpoint to its moody and mysterious predecessor, Unpredictable Express. Everlasting High feels like a blissed out, hazy summer day, echoing childhood memories from Helenes youth, in the beautiful southern part of Norway. Both as a producer and DJ, Helene's style is easily recognized for her bold, genre-blending approach to electronic music. Mixing elements of ambient, techno, and experimental sounds, creating immersive, intricate and psychedelic tracks. Her DJ sets work the same way, blending Italo, High Energy and synth nuggets, effortlessly with strange, modern club sounds. Everlasting High also sees Helene's vocals coming more to the front. Mad Girl and Lion's Eye are both beautiful, dubbed out synth pop with traces of 80's synth, shoegaze, and reveals a fine-tuned pop sensibility, with a vocal style that's sits somewhere between Kate Bush, Enya and Fever Ray. Helene Rikhard has remained a hidden gem in the Norwegian electronic music underground for years, but we feel it won't last for long. Her sound is an ingenious mix of psychedelic disco, 80's wave music, techno, krautrock, ambient and it truly operates in a world of its own. Drawing inspiration from the cosmic disco of Daniele Baldelli, the jazzy depths of Detroit techno and the esoteric dreamscapes of Laraaji, it's astral music for astral people! Psychedelic to the core, but also warm, adventurous and highly original.
