Music
Ilajan is the musical project of two sisters, created to explore the shifting borders between folk, pop and ambient. Blending muted guitars, enchanting vocal harmonies and subtle electronic experimentation, they craft a soundscape that invites surrender and contemplation. Their harmonic sensibility and melodic finesse recall artists such as Keaton Henson, Meimuna, Pomme or November Ultra. In their songs, notes are allowed to breathe and drift, creating a soft, lightly melancholic atmosphere. Whether singing in English or French, their poetic lyrics deepen the dreamlike and delicate feel of their music. In 2023, the duo released their debut EP Villes de Papier on Humus Records. Their first full-length album is set for release in autumn 2025.
Self-taught and resourceful, Léa Martinez has always lived close to music in one form or another. Drawing from her experiences working alongside artists, as a photographer, technician and lighting engineer, she has gradually shaped her own musical identity. Her debut EP Threshold, released this year on Humus Records, conjures vast, arid plains stretching endlessly to the horizon. In this sparse, elemental landscape, her seemingly fragile voice slowly emerges and carves out space to be heard. Martinez takes her time building the scene, giving depth and resonance to her songs and drawing listeners into a world tinted with rock, blues and folk
