‘Ennui’ is one of the best records we have heard lately. Refusing to embrace mainstream stylings or viral formulas, the track jumps with both feet into quirky and peculiar psychedelic territories, boasting a strong dreamy imprint and a love for expansive textures and hypnotising basslines. Such a euphoric stream of sonic joy is the perfect match for Josephine Odhil’s gloomy and gritty lyricism.
Describing the modern obsession with macabre content – be it a TikTok video or an entire documentary – Odhil seeks to shine a light on the invisible force that keeps us watching even when we’d rather not. Perhaps it’s dangerous curiosity… or something deeper? Josephine’s bucolic and hypnotising vocals accompany the listeners through such mind-bending artistic flair.
Based in Amsterdam, the Dutch songstress has much more to offer, especially for any leftfield, psych and dream-pop aficionado. Make sure to delve into her back catalogue.
