kelora (uk)
kelora is an entwined entity comprising songwriter-producers kitty hall & benedict salter.
they communicate emotional states through songwriting and digital sound-design.
their music combines folk elements in diaristic lyricism and live instrumentation with dark synthesised landscapes. kelora's world is somewhere in between day and night, outside of time, on the edge of a dense forest by a sodium lit car park. their debut album gloomerald was released in february 2023 via their own label, crystal rain.
lagrima (fr)
lagrima is a paris-based musician, who released several ep's and singles on city links recordings since 2022, that premiered on platforms such as aqnb or avyss magazine.
he performed in various venues and festivals, around france and europe, alongside acts such as palmistry, caro<3, florence sinclair, kelora, ssaliva, rebe... after early releases of hybrid and digital pop, lagrima has returned to his guitar and adopted a more stripped-down folk sound.
his electro-acoustic ballads are inspired by 90s anglo saxon indie pop as well cloud rap and other post-internet music.
nykolaes & daniel paul (be)
nykolaes and daniël paul are two artists based in brussels. next to being collaborative artists they are roommates. they bring soft-spoken songs that combine guitar and electronic elements with an honest vocal performance, sometimes autotune, sometimes out of tune.
a motivating force within this is the scatter-brained pace of the internet, with its twitching and breathing impulses which make you long for a simpler past far gone. as such these songs are 'neofolk', they have repurposed something authentic and visceral into something that shimmers and glitters anew. Expect weird pop, upside-down folk, emotional texts in dutch and english.
