EVRO – Closer
EVRO today has released his debut album EVRO1, which arrives alongside new single/video “Closer.” The track fuses new wave, techno, grunge, and electronica into a dark and hypnotic meditation on boundaries and self-preservation. Its accompanying video places EVRO and his female counterpart inside a shadow-drenched mansion, where they personify the dual forces of masculine and feminine energy within a fractured psyche. “I just wanted to make a song that goes hard,” EVRO explains. “I was really inspired by Depeche Mode, Berghain techno, TR/ST, and Salem — I feel like this track has claws and teeth and feels like leaving the afters on a cold, rainy winter morning.”
EVRO1 is the debut self-produced album from EVRO, the electronic pop and post-punk project of Matiss Evreoux, a Los Angeles–based musician originally from the Basque Country. Blending emotional pop sensibilities with the raw pulse of post-punk and modern electronic production, and drawing influence from new wave, techno, electroclash, and hyperpop, EVRO1 is a bold, self-contained world of sound that redefines the edges of experimental pop.
Across its anthemic and introspective tracks, EVRO1 explores the process of transcending emotional turmoil, moving through heartbreak, anger, and existential tension toward a renewed sense of peace within chaos. Each song mirrors the emotion or mental state it portrays, creating a cohesive narrative of catharsis and rebirth.
With EVRO1, EVRO stakes his claim as one of electronic pop’s most compelling new voices — an artist unafraid to merge vulnerability with power, and chaos with clarity, in a debut that places him squarely at the forefront of the experimental pop movement.

About EVRO:
EVRO is an electronic pop and post-punk project created by Matiss Evreoux, a Los Angeles–based musician born in the Basque Country. A tastemaker in LA’s underground scene for over 9 years, EVRO’s journey began as an introspective teenager signed to a label for a pop project, until the deal dissolved at eighteen. Relocating to Los Angeles, he set out to redefine his artistic path.
After struggling to find the right collaborators, EVRO took full creative control and became a producer himself, embedding deeply within LA’s vibrant underground and coming up alongside peers like Bapari (Eusexua). His production credits include work with Chloe Bailey and Kesha on the narrative project Electric Easy. Through a period of disorientation and artistic searching, EVRO ultimately discovered his own sonic language, a dark, transcendent world balancing raw emotion and conceptual clarity.
Inspired by contemporary reality and rave culture, EVRO’s mission is to dissolve the illusion of separation and awaken a sense of collective unity through sound and imagery. His music reflects a profound fascination with self-expansion, transformation, and wanderlust, fusing mainstream appeal with forward-thinking production to capture the pulse of the digital age.
EVRO’s sound has been described as “hyperpop Morrissey” a hybrid of vulnerability, rebellion, and visionary pop experimentation. His album EVRO1 is set to be released on Nov 7th, followed by EP Romance In Saturn’s Return, set to be released on April 3rd.
