About
Vieka Plays (:vee-e-ka p-l-aa-ys) aka Chantelle.ee.lace (better known as Chantelle Scott). Born, will die. A female singer-songwriter-electronic-fiddler-producer-engineer currently residing in the fair lands of Manchesterville, UK. Inspired and nourished for years by music and sounds and original, pure, true underground free party beats, bass and samples.
Vieka plays her music full frontal, sometimes delicate, sometimes brash but always sensual and dedicated to the senses. Alikened to Björk, Portishead with a dash of Cocorosie, Vieka moves through you in a whirl of challenging stories and sounds created by all manors of electronic geekery that can be harnessed, beated and whipped into shape.
...'Combining sonic brutality, unfettered on-stage physicality, never-quite-reassuring periods of calm and moments of breath-taking spectral beauty'...'Ostensibly an avant-garde musician in the Portishead/Björk mould mould, Vieka’s beguiling live performances set her apart from other experimentalists.'
… 'Their live concerts can veer from dubstep mood-pieces to eerie swing narratives and sexual psycho-dramas all with an underlying Burial-style-soundtrack-David Lynch intensity'...
Blending, warping and creating a sonic smorgasbord then delicious and satisfyingly belching out blues, dubstep and moody influences sullenly tied together with a silk ribbon of true performance and originality.
Expect a soup of sounds mixing various instruments from busted children’s toys, haunting vocals and icy piano to double bass, accordion and silver balls.
The unabashed vocal content winds through sexual desire, mortal loss and childish play ... With a tongue stuffed thoroughly in her cheek she blissfully hovers her sound in the darker sides of life (or hoovers her music up from the filthy corner of the proverbial room).
