The realms of electronic music, often associated with pulsating beats and synth-driven landscapes, have witnessed the rebirth of an artist who defies conventions. Enter Hologramme, the enigmatic Canadian producer whose repertoire is not only an exploration into the depths of electronic sound but a journey into his soul.
From his beginnings, rooted in a musical education handed down by familial insistence, to his debut album “Felicity”, Hologramme has showcased an intriguing balance of digital mastery and soulful expression. With his latest offering, “Slow”, Hologramme surprises us yet again, not just with a departure from his club-centric compositions but also by introducing us to a deeply personal layer – his voice.
This vocal unveiling isn’t merely about adding another layer to his music; it’s an embrace of vulnerability. “Slow” conjures up an intimate world where digital distortions meet raw human emotion. It’s a universe where ethereal synths inspired by the likes of Tycho and Com Truise form the backdrop to Hologramme’s haunting vocals. Midway, a dramatic interlude featuring frenetic drum patterns and an intoxicating arp sequence stands as a testament to Hologramme’s unwavering dedication to pushing the envelope.
Berlin, renowned as the mecca of electronic music, played a pivotal role in shaping Hologramme’s identity. The year 2018 saw this Canadian artist immerse himself in the city’s vibrant music scene, a transformative experience that led to the birth of “Felicity”. This experience was not just a sonic exploration but also a deep dive into self-awareness, leading to the adoption of his moniker – Hologramme.
With “Soledad” soon to grace our ears, one thing is clear: Hologramme is not merely content with sticking to a singular genre or sound. By seamlessly blending elements of singer-songwriter sensibilities into the vast expanse of electronic music, he not only challenges the status quo but also invites listeners on a journey – one that traverses the vast terrains of digital soundscapes while exploring the intricate labyrinth of human emotions.
