The music of Montreal duo Isla Den is as much about mythology as melody, constructing surreal realms to house their rave-refracted pop and exploratory multimedia. Founders Ellie and Mira met while students at Ontario College of Art & Design (OCAD), bonding over a shared fascination with 3D environments and hybrid-tech designs. At the crossroads of blissful and wistful, Isla Den's music serves as both siren song and beautiful illusion, uncanny but untouchable, a feedback loop of holographic longing.
