julia holter's second album, 'ekstasis', is a collection of songs written and recorded across the span of three years in los angeles, california. following the feverish response to her beautiful, minimalist pop masterpiece 'tragedy,' 'ekstasis' marks both a return to earlier, more playful territory and the blooming of more recognisable pop forms. guided by newly-learned disciplines, slightly better technology, and nearly limitless home recording time, holter's creative trajectory is taking in new neural pathways.
