May 9, 2025 BY Emma Orland

Today, New York-based singer, songwriter, and producer Elliot Moss proudly announces Highspeeds (Expanded  10th Anniversary)due August 8th via Nettwerk. The release celebrates the tenth anniversary of his seminal, career-launching record. The expanded edition will feature new songs left off the original album and stripped-down reworks of fan-favorites that made Elliot a cult-favorite. Listen to “Highspeeds” (Minimal), which pairs the song back to the mesmerizing vocals, sparse piano lines, and saxophone.

Elliot reflects: “I’ve played ‘Highspeeds’ so many times over the past decade that it’s taken on a life of its own. It had been a long while since I heard the original recording. Sitting down to make the minimal version, I started to hear all the little shifts that settled in over the years—how time quietly bent the shape of the song. It’s really interesting to hear them side by side.”

His soulful vocals and embrace of electronic, jazz, and ambient sounds have resonated with fans, establishing Elliot as one of the most innovative indie-electronic artists of the past decade.
