Teleport into Genevieve Artadi’s supersonic universe with her new anime-inspired record, GVA!!!!!
Channeled by the kinetic energy of her anime favorites from Naruto, Bleach, Initial D, Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood, Jojo’s Bizarre Adventures, Rurouni Kenshin and Attack on Titan– Artadi’s fifth album “is my dedication to anime”.
Speaking on the album’s inspiration, Artadi describes, “The inspiration I felt was like being turned inside out, like some dormant dreams could awaken in a really fun and creative way. It was great to feel driven like this instead of getting pulverized by the world’s increasing grayness. Of course this would come out in my music and in a twisted kind of way.”
The album continues her signature fusion of experimental jazz with indie punk, dream pop, alt-electronic, cinematic ballads, and lush harmonic writing, but it is Genevieve’s voice and arrangements that crystallizes her beautiful expression into a future-sonic world that is truly her own.
GVA!!!! is brought to life with her collaborators: Louis Cole, Pedro Martins, Justin Brown, Daryl Johns, Sam Wilkes, Chiquita Magic, Chris Fishman, and Miku Nakamura (of Cö shu Nie). GVA!!!!! “is an energetic, rocking, colorful record through which I hope to bring a sense of ignition to people’s souls who hear it”, explains Artadi.
Out on all platforms this October 30, follow the release with her anime-inspired retro music videos and live tour dates with Louis Cole and Chiquita Magic.
