Kelela Reveals Hallucinogen EP; Hear a Track Now

LA vocalist Kelela will release a new EP called Hallucinogen on 5th May.

The six-track record features at least one collaboration with Venezuelan producer Arca, who contributed to Björk’s Vulnicura album.

News of this release follows the announcement of a deluxe reissue of her debut mixtape, Cut 4 Me, which will drop in April. Hallucinogen is described as a “six-song cycle that explores the light and darkness of love and sexuality… ranging from tumultuous to blissful.”

Talking about Arca’s contribution, Kelela says, “I met Alejandro [Arca] on a boat in August of 2012…We sought one another out across a dance floor and within five minutes agreed to meet each other as soon as possible to collaborate. I had one song released to my name and had just heard one of his mixes, but we knew we’d found something in one another. We spent the next three days, 14 hours a day, talking about our artistic visions and how it intersected with our personal lives, making songs that reflected that while dancing around the room to let it all out. About five or six demos were born out of these three days.”

Opening the EP is the Arca-produced A Message, which can be heard in full below now via Youtube. Hallucinogen‘s tracklist is detailed at the foot of this post.

Many were first introduced to Kelela via her excellent appearance on the otherwise unbearably saccharine EFX by Teengirl Fantasy and her live session for the always great Boiler Room in 2013, which is embedded below.
