Zamilska

Zamilska is a non-metal artist and yet, she’s as metal as they come. It’s not even about the fact that she’s been a fan of the extreme for years, but that her electronic music emulates the quintessentially metal intensity. However, the songs of the Silesian artist are infused with more than just darkness, you will find there a palette of diverse sounds and moods. Zamilska, in addition to rhythmic techno and industrial, has also pop and occasionally gothic and exotic adjacent sounds in her repertoire, as unveiled on her latest record “Uncovered”. Natalia is on stage alone, but she devours like a five-piece band. You can have our word on that.

History:

Zamilska (born in 1989) has been interested in music since early childhood. First, she got into metal, only then into electronic, though it is the latter she’d ground her artistic imagination in. Initially, she wasn’t releasing any of her original material, instead putting it in the sock drawer and using her knowledge elsewhere. She was, for example, an electronic music workshop instructor.

Everything changed in 2014 when two key things happened in the life of the artist – she moved to Warsaw and released her debut album, Untune. The dirty industrial sound mixed with the intense techno produced by the Zawiercie artist was almost immediately praised. The prestigious British magazine The Quietus ranked the album as one of the best to be released in 2014 in its end-of-the-year list, with many others lauding the multi-layered music presented on the record. In the following years, the interest in the Polish producer did not subside. In addition to one of her pieces being used during a Dior fashion show, she was also nominated for a Fryderyk award in the best score category for her soundtrack for the video game “Ruiner”.

What’s more, the artist has been collaborating with various other artists as a producer or a mixing engineer, starting with Kasia Nosowska and ending with Maria Peszek.

In 2019, she released another well-received album, “Undone”, and in 2023 she composed her second score, this time around for the Polish film “Mother’s Day”.
