Feature: Eli Wan - Helena On Hinge
A hyper-catchy, early-2000s-leaning pop hit that lands with a twist, Eli Wan reveals his latest release Helena On Hinge.
It’s bright, emotionally chaotic and instantly addictive, tracking a digital crush that spirals way beyond the screen and toes the line between heartbreak and humour.
The lyrics loop and tumble - “Helena was her name, oh damn boy I fell for her again” - echoing the cycle of swiping, falling, deleting and falling all over again. It’s playful, dramatic and lightly unhinged.
Making music music that is nostalgic, hazy and emotionally wired in a way that feels instantly familiar. Eli’s songs orbit themes of wistfulness, loneliness, divine revelation, pseudo-ADHD spirals and late-night Pinterest voyeurism.
Eli Wan's latest release Helena On Hinge is avaliable to stream now via AWAL.
