Zola Diamant du Bled

Zola Blood are a London based four-piece (Matt, Ed, Sam & Paul), producing electronic beats from their studio in Hackney Wick they have truly mastered their attention to detail. Having only got together in October of 2013, Zola Blood works on a sound that is quite refined with a nod to minimalism. Their broody tunes with airy vocals and ambient synths make for the perfect texture to each track proving this is only the beginning for Zola Blood. Their self-produced, debut album, “Infinite Games.” will be released in early 2017.

Nika is the sole singer and songwriter behind Zola Jesus many creative incarnations. Written on Vashon Island, WA and co-produced in Los Angeles, CA by Dean Hurley, Taiga is Nika s fourth full-length album release. This album is a transition for Zola Jesus. Masterful layers of composition are bathed in familiar atmospheric vocals, but a new sensibility is deeply present. Taiga is at once challenging and accessible, and is undeniably branded with what Nika terms a piercing ambition.

For over a decade, Nika Roza Danilova has been recording music as Zola Jesus. She’s been on Sacred Bones Records for most of that time, and Okovi marks her reunion with the label.

Gone are the morose, gothic lo-vibes and in their place is an airy almost dance track that still sounds as true to form as other endeavor Danilova has ever undertaken. An old hit and recent show-stopper live track, "Seatalk" has been re-recorded as well and this new well mic'd version is breathtakingly good. There will be a video coming for that soon too. Closer, "Lightsick" is a straight piano ballad. Not synth, real piano. And for her darker fans, "Tower" still has that Mad Maxian apocalypse creep we know and love.
