"Martha Graham" is the beautiful experimental pop debut from Denmark's Excelsior

Drawing as much from modern electronic artists like Julia Holter as she does from avant-garde composers and choral music, Lahrmann's first song as Excelsior - "Martha Graham", named after the influential dancer and choreographer - is a fluttering beauty.

Gentle pulses of synths wash over doleful guitar lines, while Lahrmann's precise and pure choir-like vocal is a crystalline presence. The track is featherlight electronica, but kept anchored by a flat and insistent drum pattern.

Of the track, we're told that “'Martha Graham' is a story about being lonely in an extreme social time. A story about how it feels to not have a face, but only a profile picture. About being a tourist in a strange land, about Skype and Photo Booth, about long distance relationships and voicemail. In 'Martha Graham' the body is a plastic tube, while the id facemaps the ego."

The video is directed by Leonard Kjærulff and Oliver Nehammer.
