![]() Every time we passed the project back and forth, I found new things I loved in his production! I’m so excited to put Hollow out into the world together.Ĭoming off the heels of his 88rising debut with his hotly-anticipated sophomore album, Heavy Glow, Elephante is continuing his personal, sonic, and performance evolution into 2023. His first instinct on the track was really unique and special, and musically brought the lyrics to life instantly. The chorus begs the questions, “if I show you all my flaws and vulnerabilities, would you find them beautiful? Would your own weaknesses fill in the cracks? Would you accept me as I am?” Working with Tim (Elephante) on this one was a dream come true and such an honor. The funny thing is, you can’t keep up the masquerade any longer, so the crumbling is inevitable, and yet incredibly beautiful. Fighting the fear that maybe it’s better to remain as a facade of stone, never revealing a single crack beneath. In this often terrifying process, we question if it’s truly safe to allow someone in so deeply…. HALIENE: I wrote Hollow about the process of allowing yourself to be vulnerable with another person. It threads that needle for me where I can imagine going nuts to it at a festival, but also crying – the perfect balance. I knew I wanted to make a big melodic bass thing, but with my guitar and a lot of organic sounds to fit around HALIENE’s incredible voice and performance. Any level of divergence between Elephante and HALIENE themselves embraces the contrasts in love and creates a unique creative synergy.Įlephante: Hollow is such a haunting and poignant song – the first time I heard the demo I got chills and was immediately inspired to dive in. It’s where EDM meets a heavenly vocal and evocative melody meets vulnerable lyrics. The new single “Hollow”depicts the emotions of being so close to someone but never being in the same place.
