A musical multiverse of the present moment, Evanora Unlimited is one of those enigmas worth experiencing at these gatherings that tend to become increasingly algorithmic—and therefore also more comfortable and immediate. Orion Ohana is the wellspring of an imagination that encompasses as many references as possible—distorted and transmuted to the limit.

An iconoclastic punk at heart with a techno soul, Ohana recognizes in the exploration of excess and primal expression the spark necessary for everything else. He combines this innate sonic raw energy with the possibilities of digital languages, drawing parallel connections with fashion design and the performing arts. Along the way—and further destabilizing the scene—he has clearly mastered the art of songwriting.

Under an existentialist aura, deeply detached from any need for validation, he questions and speculates with ingenuity. Ultimately, this makes Evanora Unlimited an infinitely surprising matryoshka-like entity.

The close friendship with Yves Tumour, with whom he has been exchanging collaborations and performances, reveals a shared iconoclastic sensibility. From a childhood spent surrounded by records to adolescence at raves, each journey seems to lead to the next, in a constant open channel. Experiences that have unveiled a fluidity of ideas, sounds, and images as liberating as it is vital. Exploring the realm of identity—both personal and collective—Perfect Answer and Lustful Expanse were albums that raised more questions than they answered. His most recent works feature a stripped-down vocal approach, free of effects. Less haze, yes, but no less intensity. Different prisms of Ohana’s same transgressive magic.

In perfect cosmic alignment with other contemporary outsiders such as Dreamcrusher, aya, Deli Girls, or even Claire Rousay, Evanora describes itself as a manifestation of “religious horror epic, erotic science fiction, and real-life events.” An absolute national debut—one that’s sure to get people talking.
