Comprised of Nela Paki and Marilou Lyonnais Archambault, ebb crafts slow-burning compositions that drift between new age, downtempo, trip-hop, and experimental electronic music. Evolving from their earlier project, Saudade, the duo has expanded its practice toward a sonic space where deep bass, fragments of acoustic instruments, and ghostly layers of drones intersect.
Drawing from a wide spectrum of influences, from abrasive sound design and dub to ambient and spiritual jazz, they create immersive sonic pieces that invite listeners into emotionally charged landscapes shaped by meditative tension.
The duo has shared the stage with artists such as Oliver Coates, Roedelius, Nadah El Shazly, and CS + Kreme, and have performed at festivals including MUTEK, Suoni Per Il Popolo, Piknic Électronik, and 24 Hours of Vinyl. They also host a monthly show on n10.as radio, dedicated to exploring the fringes of hazy, atmospheric music.

Live
Performing selections from their upcoming album, Montréal duo ebb deliver a wash of new age dub, ambient, downtempo, and trip-hop that unfolds like a moody romance in slow motion. Reimagining the record through live synths and vocalisations, they envelop the audience in a nostalgic, shadowy scene where intimate melodies, dense bass, and ghostly textures drift between tenderness and tension.
