Label US

Essaie Pas is a Montreal electronic duo consisting of Marie Davidson and Pierre Guerineau. With their unique blend of darkwave, synthpop, and techno influences, they have carved out a distinct sound in the electronic music scene.

Inspired by artists such as *Hante.*, *Paradox Obscur*, and *Marie Davidson* herself, Essaie Pas creates hauntingly beautiful tracks that captivate listeners with their atmospheric melodies and introspective lyrics. Their music often explores themes of love, desire, and existentialism.

With a discography that includes albums like "Demain est une autre nuit" and "New Path," Essaie Pas has gained recognition for their experimental approach to electronic music. They have garnered a dedicated fanbase worldwide and have performed at renowned festivals such as Primavera Sound and MUTEK.

Montreal duo Essaie pas return to DFA with a 12-inch that picks up where their 2018 album New Path left off. "Earth" is a blistering ride through the rave, an amalgamation of techno and trance. The galloping bass line is the backbone of the song, and Marie Davidson’s vocals climb to new heights against synth stabs. "Corps Étranger," with its stuttering percussion, is a slow burner in comparison. For the remix of "Earth," Marco Passarani of Tiger &amp; Woods (Running Back, Numbers) doubles down on the Italo disco angle and doesn’t shy away from the more anthemic moments of the original, managing to rework it into something akin to a celebration of this "shithole" we call Earth.
