GRAMMY-nominated Elderbrook and Virtuoso Jan Blomqvist Deliver Fragile but Powerful Masterpiece “Teardrop.” Out Now on Elderbrook’s Mine Recordings


Elderbrook and Jan Blomqvist stand at the forefront of a new wave in electronic music — one defined by emotional depth, live performance, and genre fusion. A Grammy and Ivor Novello-nominated artist, Elderbrook has evolved from his breakout hit “Cola” into a globally recognized innovator, blending heartfelt songwriting with sleek, experimental production. Across albums like Why Do We Shake in the Cold?, Little Love, and Another Touch, he’s built a sound that bridges the intimacy of indie pop with the pulse of electronic music, performing on iconic stages such as Coachella and Red Rocks while collaborating with artists like Diplo and Bob Moses.

Similarly, Berlin-based Jan Blomqvist has reimagined what live electronic music can be, merging vocals, instrumentation, and deep, melodic soundscapes into immersive performances. Known for his atmospheric, emotionally charged sets at festivals like Burning Man and Coachella, Blomqvist continues to shape the melodic techno landscape with projects like his 2025 album MUTE and his label Disconnected, a hub for vocal-driven, boundary-pushing electronica. Together, Elderbrook and Blomqvist embody the human side of electronic music — where technology and emotion move in sync.

British GRAMMY-nominated artist Elderbrook teams up with German melodic techno innovator Jan Blomqvist for “Teardrop,” a mesmerizing collaboration out October 10 via Mine Recordings. Blending Elderbrook’s emotive vocals and textured production with Blomqvist’s cinematic soundscapes, the track captures both artists’ shared talent for crafting deeply human electronic music. Known for his global hit “Cola,” Elderbrook channels his signature warmth and precision, while Blomqvist brings his atmospheric, live-driven aesthetic to create a sound that feels intimate yet expansive.

Opening with haunting vocals and a slow, pulsing bassline, “Teardrop” builds into an emotional crescendo — equal parts euphoria and melancholy. It’s a delicate balance of groove and introspection, where intricate production meets lyrical vulnerability. Together, Elderbrook and Blomqvist deliver a track that feels both timeless and alive, a moment of connection between two artists pushing electronic music toward a more soulful, cinematic future.
