Los Angeles-based singer, songwriter, producer, and DJ Elohim makes her highly anticipated debut on Lost In Dreams Records with Half Alive, a bass-driven single that transforms raw vulnerability into the language of trap and wave. Out September 12, the track expands on Elohim’s reputation for weaving deeply personal narratives into boundary-pushing electronic productions.
Half Alive opens with her unmistakable vocal delivery—aching, fragile, and unflinchingly direct—drawing listeners into an intimate reflection on her ongoing pursuit of stability. The refrain “I wanna be okay” cuts through in pitch-shifted echoes, resembling intrusive thoughts that refuse to fade. Underneath, soft drum shuffles and spectral harmonies create a delicate rhythmic foundation, while melancholic synths dissolve into distorted low-end growls before surging back with cathartic intensity. The result is a composition that swings between haunting fragility and bass-fueled release, striking at the core of the trap and wave spectrum.
Elohim has long thrived at the crossroads of electronic experimentation and pop accessibility. Her collaborative catalog includes high-profile work with Skrillex, Marshmello, Louis The Child, and Big Freedia, along with multiple Billboard charting releases. Her self-titled debut album even claimed the No. 1 spot in Dance/Electronic Album Sales, underscoring her crossover impact.
On stage, she has captivated audiences at Coachella, EDC Mexico, Bonnaroo, and Electric Forest, while outlets including Rolling Stone, The New York Times, Variety, and Nylon have celebrated her artistry. Beyond music, her outspoken advocacy for mental health has become a defining pillar of her work, highlighted by her Braindead EP, which directly supported mental health awareness initiatives.
With Half Alive, Elohim sharpens her uncompromising vision—exposing vulnerability through sound design that is as sharp as it is tender. As her debut release with Lost In Dreams, the single situates her among a roster dedicated to forward-thinking electronic music while reaffirming her place as one of the most fearless and multifaceted voices in modern music.
