Leva Vaiti has brought her talent as a classically trained violinist and creativity as an electronic artist to the UK, taking up residence in London. Already an experienced musician, she entered the electronica community inspired by the city’s underground scene and well equipped to begin claiming her own space and take on the moniker ‘Piksel’.

Her interest in music extends into scoring for visual media, an interest that led her to co-develop the Syntrex project, a multimedia collective of artists working at the point where experimental music, visual art and dance begin to coalesce. It’s through Syntrex that her latest EP began formation, originally being produced to serve as a score for a multimedia dance piece which premiered at The Place in the heart of London back in early February.

While some tracks remain exclusive to the performance, three have been selected for Piksel’s EP ‘Some Silver Burns’, including our featured track ‘Space’. The release showcases a brief view into the variety of styles Piksel is capable of bringing to life, each adding to the overall theme of connection to the natural world, expressed through lightly manipulated strings, matched with field recordings. The ambient landscape is inhabited by textured beats, mist-like synth and violin of mournful character.

Support the release on Bandcamp or stream it on Spotify.
