I am also at the start of a journey, where I have to find out who I am and what is a part of me.
I have been a metalhead all my life. My music was fueld by aggression and melancholy.
But there is more to life than being negative all the time and while metal allows you to live out your dark sides it doesn't have much bright sides to it.
So over the last years I grew tired of constantly being exposed to anger and sadness, which led me to stop making music entirely.
Now a few years later instead of my old guitar I picked up my first synth. To start from scratch. Not just to re-invent my music, but myself.

Finding your music in that process and seeing how you're performing it is very inspiring to me.

Chido lo que dices en el vídeo, solo ser lo que se nos de la gana, en la vida hay 2 versiones, el Yin y el yan

Ela is so talented and the music channels emotion so purely

[NestorRojasGoogle]

La amo!!! Amo su música!!!!
Me transporte una y otra y otra vez. La uso para estudiar, leer, bailar solo, trabajar, hacer deporte... mejor dicho: para todo!!!
Pero además, la descubrí por un TikTok, QUE PENA no saber de ella antes, y de verdad da mucha pena. Es una genio, es linda, es enorme, es única.
Pero lo mejor fue que llegó en una etapa muy difícil de mi vida, donde mi playlist en Spotify eran canciones tristes, que llamé "de amor y desamor", que me traían recuerdos que no me dejaban concentrar, dictar mis clase universitarias, mal, muy mal. Mi psicóloga me dijo que las cosas llegan cuando tienen que llegar y las cosas pasan cuando tienen que pasar. Y Ela Minus pasó cuando tuvo que pasar y llegó en agosto de 2021, cuando tuvo que llegar. Me ayudó y cambió mi estado de ánimo, mis recuerdos, emociones y me sentí liberado y renovado.
Me acompaña cada sábado subiendo a Monserrate a pie a las 5:00 am.
Es una de las cosas maravillosas que me han pasado en la vida. Gracias Ela Minus!!!

That song just perfectly encapsulates who we all are at some point in our lives. Magic.

"When people you love die or they're far away, or for whatever reason they're not holding the shape they used to hold, their memory can exist in a place in your head where things are just sweet and soft. 'Close' was written to capture the feeling of tenderness someone left with me after they were gone. I think the mind is a very powerful thing and it can be very sweet, when we let it..."

*Dear Ela!*
Even though I have just discovered you, I had a glimpse on your channel, your music and your videos. It´s really great that you record, compose and even create a video. It reminds me of Grimes (Claire Boucher) who also creates her own music, sound, videos even album covers.
I would like to listen and watch your songs. Now I have free time so there is much more than a high probability that I will do it.
Y yo puedo hablar en espanol un poco. pero yo no puedo hablar tan bien y tan mucho, como la persona nativa. Usted tiene mucho talent por cantando en Ingles y Espanol también. Me gusta escribir y hablar en las lenguas diferentes.
*Thank you.*
*Graciás.*

[steeeeeffy]

La amo, es una genio.
Demasiado creativa, adelantada a éste tiempo diría yo.

[mistydayremainsofthejudgment]

i have a question... were you on 107.7 "the end" radio station on sunday 8/15? they played a song that sounded like your style so i came here trying to find it (i saw you on their website) but i cannot find the exact song... was very beautiful and sounded a bit like this one with the samples, but a faster bpm

[buzas]

Accepting all parts of yourself, thats a struggle sometimes

[madmac]

So incredibly talented and honest. Love this album so much. Can't wait to see you in LA

[GoodfaYou]

You are You >undoubtedly Beautiful You ❤️🌹

Now I don't want to sound like a creep or nothing, but I'm ever so slightly in love with Ela.
