Hello Listeners!

In this episode, we had the opportunity to have a conversation with Tim Wu a.k.a Elephante

Tim Wu Growing up as an Asian-American in Michigan shaped a unique yet challenging background. After graduating from Harvard University, he worked for a prestigious global consulting firm but felt deeply dissatisfied with his life. Ultimately, he decided to pursue his passion for music. Elephante has garnered hundreds of millions of streams for his critically acclaimed album, Heavy Glow (2021), a work that pushes the boundaries of dance music, as well as two EPs: I Am The Elephante (2016), a nine-track exploration of progressive house, synthpop, and trap; and Glass Mansion (2018), which debuted at #1 on the U.S. Dance iTunes chart.

In early 2023, Elephante collaborated with electro-pop singer HALIENE on the track "Hollow," followed by collaborations with Indonesian singer-songwriter Stephanie Poetri and Chinese singer Zhang Yanqi on "No Explanations."

Elephante will release his latest album, COPE, through his label Hidden Horizon on November 29. The album delves into the emotional spectrum of healing and resilience, exploring how we navigate trauma and adversity. The lead single from the album, "Taste of Your Tongue," featuring babyidontlikeyou, captures a whirlwind of nostalgia and complex romance, highlighting Elephante’s talent for weaving emotional storytelling with his signature electronic production. COPE is an album with profound themes, where each song represents a different approach to coping with life’s challenges.
