Elma Orkestra is the evocative musical pseudonym of Northern Irish composer and musician Eoin O'Callaghan, who has carved a niche for himself in the landscape of contemporary instrumental and electronic music. His artistic endeavors often straddle the line between orchestral arrangements and ambient textures, creating soundscapes that reflect themes of place, identity, and connection. With a focus on conceptual projects, O'Callaghan uses Elma Orkestra to combine his passion for storytelling through music with a keen sense of modern production techniques, molding auditory experiences that transcend traditional genre boundaries.

Notable among his works is the critically acclaimed album "Borders", created in collaboration with fellow musician Ryan Vail, which showcases his ability to weave poignant narratives with sound. The extended edition of "Borders" promises an even deeper dive into the rich tapestries initially presented. With a portfolio that includes innovative pieces like "Bankrupt Billionaire (Original Soundtrack)" and emotive tracks such as "LOVE" and "Arrival," Elma Orkestra has earned a reputation for crafting compelling, cinematic scores that resonate with a diverse audience. His music spans from introspective and serene ("Graffitis" and "Colours") to dynamic and evocative ("Droves" and "Factory Girls"), making clear his versatility and depth as an artist. With every release, including the enigmatic "Lithium", Elma Orkestra reinforces his position as a luminary in the contemporary music art form, capturing the imaginations of listeners with his rich, auditory storytelling.
