NFNR – Ukrainian, Kyiv based, electronic musician Olesia Onykiienko. Started as choir conductor she transformed choral music practices into electronic composition in different genres, combining multi-layered polyphonic textures of modular virtual synths with another passion for industrial field recordings.
‘On one of NFNR pages, you can find techno with elements of industrial. All this sounds harsh, bold and innovative for the Ukrainian scene. The second is drone and ambient, which takes you even further into experimental soundscapes. […] DTF Magazine included NFNR in the TOP-10 of female DJs and producers of the Kyiv scene.’ JagerVibes UA
