Galina Ozeran
Berlin
NEW ALBUM IS OUT:
https://crashsymbols.bandcamp.com/album/something-natural
Galina Ozeran more known as Chikiss is a Russian singer and pianist, composer and electronic producer. Having recorded her first album in 2005, she has produced a large musical output from post-punk and psychedelic rock to minimalistic synthesizer pop and spectral electronic music. As a solo artist and in various collaborations she has created her personal and idiosyncratic style.
As a child of soviet era sci-fi, Galina tinted by the faded glory of suggested futures that never came to be. Her performance draws on nostalgic futurism, both brand new and nodding to obscure numbers by long forgotten, and little known internationally soviet acts. Armed with encyclopediac knowledge of early synth recordings, depicting mischievous romantic mechanical dreams brought into life by analogue machines.
