Multilingual singer-songwriter Irène Schrader unveils her trilingual EP ‘ECLIPSE,’ a six-track release that moves fluidly between English, French, and Mandarin. Rooted in themes of love, change, and identity, the project unfolds like a late-night sky — luminous, reflective, and quietly vast. Each song feels connected by motion, both emotional and geographical.
“ECLIPSE is about movement — geographically, emotionally, and spiritually. I wanted to explore how we navigate love and identity when everything around us feels in flux,” Schrader shares. Written during a transitional chapter in her early twenties, the EP captures the push and pull of a nomadic life shaped by travel, study, and shifting relationships.
The bilingual opener “Éclipse” explores the ache of right person, wrong time, shifting from delicate ballad to pulsing groove. “Ladida” leans into chill beats and soft renewal, while “2062” offers a stark meditation on heartbreak and environmental collapse. “Nomade 游牧,” sung in Mandarin and French, captures the feeling of perpetual transition, and “Written In The Stars” pairs orchestral sweep with electronic tension. Closing track “Cosmos” lifts the mood with playful rhythm and existential wonder.
Influenced by 70s and 90s Mandopop, classic French chanson, and modern electro-pop, Schrader’s songwriting carries both intimacy and range. ‘ECLIPSE’ feels borderless — a project that drifts between cultures and sounds while staying grounded in personal truth.
