Million Moths
Million Moths is a new dark electronic art-pop project from Portland-based producer, vocalist, and sound engineer Erica von Trapp. Through experimental production techniques melding organic and digital tones with ethereally haunting vocals, her 10-track LP, spun, interweaves thorny thematic terrains of rage, desire, and heartache with softer elements of vulnerability, and trust, and deep love. von Trapp's debut as Million Moths is an exhilarating listen, a voyage through dynamic sonic expanses, landing in the unnameable emotion of being seen and unsettled all at once.
von Trapp has spent the past decade honing her skills in Paris, Los Angeles, and the Joshua Tree desert – she now works out of her studio, Sapphire Jaguar, nestled in a serene Portland, Oregon neighborhood. Her innovative and exploratory process has made her a sought-after collaborator for experimental, emotive, and marginalized artists working in all genres.
The Million Moths moniker grew out of a desire to break with past modes of confined creativity and make something both insular and expansive, and truly her own. No one else heard a single note of spun until it was complete.
