'Elephant House are an intriguing duo consisting of Shenggy Shen on percussion and Christos Fanaras on keyboards. Droning, fizzing and bubbling analogue synths weave around propulsive drum patterns which build into an ecstatic tension.' - Record Collector

Elephant House is a London-based baroque 'n' roll duo, featuring Shenggy Shen on drums and Christos Fanaras on synths. Since their inception in 2013, they have been a vibrant part of the London underground music scene. They have released two LPs on Adaadat Records: Pony Ride (2017) and Chollima (2019).

Shenggy Shen is the former drummer with China's first all-female punk band Hang on the Box. She is also a former member of the avant-duo White with Zhang Shou Wang from Carsick Cars whose self-titled debut was produced by Blixa Bargeld. Her solo music has also been released on Noise Joy and Little Sound. Her most recent work, Parallel Weaving, is an "in distance" collaboration with Beijing-based artist Sheng Jie, created during the lockdown and released on WV Sorcerer Productions in 2022.

Christos Fanaras follows in the Greek lineage of ambient pioneers, like Vangelis and Iasos only with an emphasis on deep dark brooding soundscapes and space-age melancholia. He has released music on his own imprint Down Is Up sometimes under the moniker Jack Shirt. Alongside M.K. Hauser, Christos is one half of the project Masters both having previously played together in the band Agaskodo Teliverek.
