ARTIST BIO
Nico Amara is the solo darkwave project of experimental composer and multidisciplinary artist Nicole Fior-Greant, active in European electronic contemporary music festivals. With this project, she delves into her very private box, releasing her debut darkwave single—bringing with her a compositional precision that shapes subtle yet complex acoustic shifts within a minimal structure.Inspired by darkwave, industrial-tinged electronic music, and classic contemporary composers, her music carries technical complexities, driven by cold, detached dark electro beats and mechanical textures shaped by dissonant tones, slow filter sweeps, and modulated reverb tails. These elements contrast with lush, minimal analog synth layers, creating an immersive backdrop.Themes of existential reflection, environmental, and animal activism are expressed through fragmented, concise thoughts. Shifting between soft singing, spoken phrases, and whispers, she delivers haunting vocals in English, Italian, French, and German, reflecting a unique identity that adds sonic diversity and ambiguity that feels both intimate and distant.The result is a sound that defies easy categorisation—meticulously crafted yet emotionally raw, where compositional precision meets vulnerability through fragmented, multilingual vocals and a minimalist framework, unfolding in a space marked by absence, tension, and quiet intensity, both personal and unapologetically detached.
IN CHAINS
DEBUT SINGLE
Released: March 07, 25
Nico Amara’s debut single, IN CHAINS, is the most personal track from her forthcoming album—raw, restrained, and unsettling. Beneath its stark and intricately structured framework, the lyrics explore the inherited, unwanted patterns which leave their imprint —both physical and emotional.
Her haunting vocals and ghostly textures, reminiscent of a horror film, evoke the feeling of being trapped in an abandoned factory.
Moving between spoken and sung whispers, weaving through minimal synth layers and subtly modulated dark electronic beats, she created a soundscape within a minimal framework, which resonates with hidden and contrasting complexities that are both hypnotic and cold, yet still driven by a dark pulse made to dance to.
