Artist description Breathing a rich dose of soul into the cool digital world, electronica artist Artemis cooks up seductive sonic concoctions, deftly weaving poetry and pure emotion into musical landscapes which are at once futuristic and pulsing with earthy, organic life. With her roots in classical and folk music, and training in vocal traditions from several corners of the world, Artemis puts the limitless horizons of electronic music’s spectrum to good use. Her style defies category, ranging from sparse to richly symphonic, combining elements of ambient, downtempo, triphop, drum and bass, and breakbeats…and none of the above. The singer songwriter casts her husky, silky alto over smart beats and dark textures, to the effect of ultimate atmosphere – sublimely understated use of technology for maximum emotive effect. A seven-track whirlwind tour of Artemis’ universe, her debut cd “Undone” has been turning heads and ears around the world since its release in late 2001. The eagerly anticipated follow-up full length offering is expected to surface in early 2003. Audio and video can be enjoyed at www.artemis.fm or www.rtfmrecords.com and cds are for sale at both sites. ˇ
