Zamilska

ZAMILSKA’S heavy, rhythmic sounds are filled with lots of bass. Though associated with techno, her music reaches way beyond the definition of the genre and it oscillates between electronica, world music and noise. She takes inspirations from various sources: raw sounds taken from native Silesia, precisely interlaced with tribal chants and oriental elements. Holding sturdiness of an industrial grinder, pensive yet melodic, trance-like. At home, she has played on the biggest stages in Poland, worked with acclaimed local artists as well as set ups like Philharmonic orchestra and been nominated for the Polish equivalent of Grammy for three of her albums. Abroad, her tracks were played on Radio BBC 6 Music by no other than Iggy Pop, Mary Anne Hobbs and Tom Ravenscroft. Nine Inch Nails recommended one of her tracks on their official Spotify playlist.

She’s worked on various musical (remixes) and fashion projects. She also toured Europe playing festivals such as Transmusicales, CTM, Primavera, Norbergfestival, TodaysArt, Insomnia, Fantoche among many other.

Her releases to date are: UNTUNE (album) 2014, UNDONE (EP) 2016 (nominated for Fryderyk Award), UNCOVERED (album) 2019 (also nominated for Fryderyk Award) and 2023 soundtrack for motion picture “Mother’s Day” (nominated for Fryderyk Award). ZAMILSKA debuted back in 2014 with two singles: Quarrel and Duel 35 (which was used by Dior during one of their fashion launches in Tokyo). She also stepped into the gaming world. Her music features heavily throughout the RUINER game (Digital Dragon Award 2018 winner Best Polish Game Soundtrack).

Internationally, ZAMILSKA remixed Paula Temple’s track “Cages” for Paula’s remix album. She has also remixed Editors top hit “Black Gold” which was released digitally in 2019. ZAMILSKA collaborated with Resina, Polish cellist and composer signed to FatCat Records, who lent her beautiful soprano on Zamilska’s newest album. ZAMILSKA also took on a role of a music producer. She worked with Paulina Przybysz, on “Dzielne Kobiety”, track featured on “Chodz Tu”, album for which Przybysz received the Fryderyk 2017 award.

AMILSKA’S music hit the big screen, in Aleksandra Terpińska's short film “The Best Fireworks Ever” (Cannes winner CANAL+ award for short film and the Rail d'Or award) and in a documentary “Tourists” for which she composed the entire soundtrack. Both films were screened during various international film festivals. On small screen her remix of Gazelle Twin’s “Belly of the Beast” was played on ABC series “How To Get Away With Murder”.

In 2023 Netflix premiered the movie “Mother’s Day” which Zamilska created music score for. In the first week from the release it was No1 on Netflix Global Top 10. She received an Award at Festival Muzyki Filmowej in Cracow for this score. New album “United Kingdom of Anxiety” will be released Oct 4 2024. It combines the rawness of techno and the trance-like nature of world music, industrial sound and a fine blend of trip- hop. The picture the Polish producer created is a dystopian, post-apocalyptic, fascinating vision of a collapsing world. Most definitely it is her most enhanced work to date. Zamilska controls every detail of this symphony of horror and, like a true artist, transforms violent emotions into a work of art.

This fall Zamilska will have the pleasure of opening up for iconic Kim Gordon on her European Tour.
