Resina (CD)

Die Komponistin und Cello-Virtuosin erschafft lediglich mit Cello und Loop-Pedal bewegende Stücke zwischen Neo-Klassik, Elektronik und Indie. 130701 present the self-titled album Resina due for release on the 30th September 2016. Resina is the alias of Karolina Rec, a cellist/composer based in Warsaw, who signed to 130701 having sent in this album as a hugely impressive demo late last year. A very accomplished performer with a background in Polish underground music, this eponymous album is her solo debut and sees a rich, atmospheric re-imagining of a Polish music rooted in a feeling for indigenous nature / landscape and realised via an intuitive, experimental approach to playing. Born 1982, Karolina graduated from Music Academy in Gdansk, and was active in Poland's independent music scene since the late '00s, co-founding and collaborating with some of Poland's most influential alternative bands. She featured on many albums and soundtracks (including the Oscar-nominated 'Rabbit a la Berlin'), and wrote music for numerous theatre productions. A fantastic debut release, 'Resina' is an immersive and deeply enchanting album, which unveils a unique and striking new talent.
