PEPTALK x ELLES – “Timezones” |Review

With "Timezones," PEPTALK and ELLES deliver a warm-hearted pop anthem that captures the bittersweet ache of homesickness while chasing big dreams across the globe. Written after a serendipitous session sparked by an Instagram DM and a literal road trip in Australia, this collab radiates both spontaneity and heart.

Set against a shimmering synth-pop backdrop, “Timezones” balances escapist euphoria with emotional gravity. ELLES’ globe-trotting perspective pairs beautifully with PEPTALK’s signature sincerity, making the track feel like a voice note from your best friend reminding you that you’re exactly where you need to be — even if it’s far from home.

The trio’s musical DNA — part MUNA-style honesty, part HAIM-tight chemistry, part pure serotonin — is on full display, while ELLES brings her own magnetic energy that rounds out the track’s emotional resonance. It’s a reminder that distance can sting, but connection makes it worth it.

True to their name, PEPTALK once again proves they’re the pop confidantes we all need — gently nudging us to keep going, wherever we are in the world.
