嶋田会希–Elle Shimada is a violinist, producer, curator, DJ and multi-instrumentalist from Tokyo based in Melbourne.

A unique combination of thickly layered string lines making tender love to heavy new-jazz influenced beats creates an emotive, cinematic and other-worldly atmosphere while keeping the dance floor pulsing with visionary and edgy production.

This year, she released About Blank____ ft. Rara Zulu and Mononoke ft. Yami, along with a self-directed music video showcasing her storytelling and curatorial skills beyond music. Together with the CO-DREAMERS collective, Shimada creates captivating performances with choir sections, choreography, and abstract compositions, touring Australia, UK, Asia and Europe, supporting renowned artists such as Madlib, Liv.e, Obongjayar, Alfa Mist and Jitwam.
