Elohim is undoubtedly one of the most notable female acts of the moment in electronic music, known for lyrics that go straight to the heart with rhythms that make you want to dance.
Today he returns with his first single of 2024, “Can't Remember Your Name.” Building on the emotional depth of his previous track “Broken Face,” released in December, Elohim delves into the complexities of his mental journey with this new release. In “Ca n't Remember Your Name,” he reveals his experiences with the fluctuating challenges of finding solace in prescription medications, a personal struggle he faced during his tour in the fall of 2023.
In a span of just two weeks, he lost more than ten pounds and battled uncontrollable shaking and daily vomiting, all stemming from overwhelming anxiety and panic. Recognizing the dangerous health implications of excessive benzodiazepine use, the Elohim team intervened and concluded that it was imperative that she return home and seek help.
Elohim shares his experience, saying “Medication has been incredible, it has saved me and changed my life, but it also started to lead me down a dark and unhealthy path. When I was on tour in the fall I wasn't myself. I was vomiting every day, I couldn't stop shaking, I couldn't eat. I felt and looked like a zombie. Taking a small prescription dose of benzodiazepines to get through an emergency was nothing new to me, but this level of anxiety and panic was. After those two weeks of travel, I realized that I couldn't rely on temporary solutions, I needed a proper treatment plan. I made the decision to cancel the rest of the tour, go home and focus on my health. I am pleased to share that with the help of medical professionals I have a solid treatment plan that includes SSRIs, exercise, and intensive therapy. 'Can't Remember Your Name' is a song that explores the ups and downs I experienced while taking medication.”
“Can't Remember Your Name” is a fascinating blend of pop melodies driven by vibrant bass elements. The track envelops Elohim's consistently ethereal vocals with bloated bass, echoing synths, and an irresistible beat. With resonant traces of vulnerability and serving as a powerful testament to the unpredictable highs and lows of medication, “Can't Remember Your Name” fearlessly dives into Elohim's psyche.
