Marina Herlop shed the classical trappings of her accomplished previous albums Nanook and Babasha to emerge in vibrant, polymorphous form on her hypnotizing 2022 album Pripyat released by PAN.
With Pripyat the Catalonian, conservatory trained composer, vocalist, and pianist channeled her environment in truly posthuman form; performing alien vocal acrobatics, drawing inspiration from Carnatic music of Southern India, while planting a diversity of sonic seeds which blossom brilliantly in her sumptuous garden of chimeric compositions, produced for the first time exclusively electronically.
In October 2023 she brought these gestures full circle with the release of her LP, Nekkuja. Herlop has been hitting the road hard the last three years, blowing audiences away all over the globe including performances at Primavera, CTM, Mutek, Dekmantel, Le Guess Who?, and Unsound amongst other notable events.
