Naive proudly presents "summers_of_love" from London's ELLES. This release, ELLES's first for Naive, follows her 2019 release "emo_ecstasy_everything" on Naive's experimental sub-label, Naivety.

Skipping beats and heavy bass permeate the EP, a four-track mixture of deep lows and smooth highs, as well as reverb-drenched vocals from ELLES herself. It's a melodic ode to melancholy moments spent in clubs and broken romances captured in the snapshots of a strobe. Piano chords and 303 grooves call back to early house and rave tunes while percussive sounds, spread wide and loose, express the lineage of garage and early dubstep influences.

Moody, even wistful at times, "summers_of_love" is a thoughtful dance record with an emotional punch.
