The versatile multi-instrumentalist, visual artist, and genre-defying trendsetter Elise Trouw has returned with a bang of the theatrical kind. Her newest single, "All You Need Is Lust," is the first taste from the scorching satirical concept album "The Diary of Elon Lust," due February 13th, 2026, on Midtopia. As per Trouw's MO, the tune defies classification at every turn, transitioning seamlessly between bombastic instrumentals and brass parts, and bold hooks and lyrics.
Trouw makes it clear that she isn't holding anything back. "All You Need Is Lust" merges cutting wit with lush, striking soundscapes, producing a sound that's familiar yet utterly surprising, modern yet classic.
A fever-dream music video for the track features surreal imagery and provocative symbolism, inspired by Hieronymus Bosch. Trouw's video narrative deepens the song's playful, biting commentary, hinting at an imaginative universe sure to offer twists throughout the album.
There's a streak of revolutionary spirit running through every moment of "All You Need Is Lust." It's both playful and a bit nervy, intoxicating and an invitation to be adventurous with one's curiosities. So not only is Elise Trouw releasing a new single, she's unveiling what feels like a new chapter of her artistry, albeit one that toes the line between satire and genuine artistic expression, between music and visual spectacle.
