Releasing today and premiering over at Nialler9, Mayo electronic producer Elaine Mai’s first single from her new E.P. comes with a spiffy new video.

Pete Murphy wites:

Enniscrone is an evocative, uplifting electronic track, recalling childhood summer holidays spent by the sea. An accompanying video shot by Paul Mahon will be released along with the track.

Since the release of her last EP in 2014, Elaine has been expanding upon her previous critically acclaimed live performances, experimenting with her live show as well as her approach to song-writing and production. Over the past two years, she has released several new remixes and co-produced the track Rocamadour with Irish producer, Daithí. She also wrote and produced the music for Finem Respice, a play which enjoyed a sold out run as part of the 2016 Tiger Dublin Fringe Festival.
