Estelle Mey – “SNAKE (Folk version)”

Just stumbled across something incredibly special. Estelle Mey’s “SNAKE (Folk Version)” is the kind of track that makes you want to play it again and again. This French-born, Iceland-forged artist has created something that feels both ancient and completely fresh.

The folk version strips back the sound to reveal something even more powerful; those hypnotic hurdy-gurdy drones create a trance-like atmosphere that’s downright addictive. Her vocals are absolutely stunning too, shifting from ethereal whispers to these raw, powerful moments that give me serious goosebumps. I’m honestly blown away by how she manages to blur the lines between folk traditions and something much more modern and electric. It’s like she’s channeling something ancient while simultaneously pushing neo-folk into exciting new territory.
