Heka

dark ambient

From the Italian hills to London, multi-disciplinary artist Francesca Brierley, aka heka, creates aural landscapes - where her spectral vocals offer moments of clarity amongst the static, and immerse the listener in a world of ever changing emotion. Deeply intimate, and awash with melancholia, her style of lo-fi warmth incorporates snippets of conversations previously buried deep within the notes of her phone, blending murmurings of life with themes of nature and automation, nostalgia and the unknown, one note at a time. Rejecting genre constraints in favour of a sonic hybridity, 2021 sees heka release new work: a collection of self-produced, butchered folk which through the melding of electronic and organic tones, delivers an EP that is as haunting as it is enticing.
