Seven Lions

About

Seven Lions isn't just an electronic music artist; he's a conjurer of worlds. Jeff Montalvo, the mastermind behind the moniker, emerged from the metalcore scene with a sonic vision that defied genre boundaries. Trading in shredding guitars for pulsating synths and intricate sound design, he forged a signature sound that marries the raw emotion of metal with the euphoric highs of trance and the earth-shattering drops of dubstep. His early releases, like the remix of Florence + The Machine’s "Cosmic Love," quickly garnered attention, showcasing his ability to weave ethereal melodies with hard-hitting bass. But it’s more than just genre-bending; it’s the storytelling. Seven Lions crafts sonic narratives, each track a chapter in a larger, often fantastical, world. This is evident in his Chronicles EP series, a collection of releases that explore themes of mythology and adventure. The influence of artists like Above & Beyond is palpable in his melodic sensibilities, while his darker, heavier tracks nod to his metal roots. Collaborations with artists like Illenium and Trivecta further highlight his ability to bridge different sonic landscapes. Seven Lions' music resonates deeply with fans who crave something more than just a beat; they seek an immersive experience, a journey into another realm. He's not just playing music; he's building a world, one meticulously crafted soundscape at a time.
