VHS is a synth-pop duo from Copenhagen formed in 2014 by vocalist Mette Tronvoll and producer Emile Bojesen. They met at a music studio there and started making music together, releasing their first EP in 2015. Their sound leans on atmospheric synths and Tronvoll's ethereal vocals, heard on tracks like 'Sofista' and 'Dias Chuvosos'.
In 2018, the band faced plagiarism accusations regarding 'Sofista,' which they denied. They've put out several releases since forming, including the albums 'She's Not True' in 2016 and 'Youth' in 2019, plus EPs like 'Håndværk' in 2017 and 'Dagen Før' in 2021. Their songs often explore themes of lost love and existential reflection, as in 'Infância' and 'Sonhos Em Vão.'
Their music blends synth-pop with dream pop elements, creating immersive soundscapes built around Bojesen's synth programming and Tronvoll's lyrical delivery. While they've built a following, their work remains grounded in that Copenhagen studio collaboration, focusing on mood and texture rather than grand statements.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
