(Folk, Chamber Music, Avant Garde, Pop Rock) [WEB] Olga Bell - Krai (Край) - 2014, FLAC (tracks), lossless

New Amsterdam Records is pleased to announce Russian-born, New York-based composer/producer Olga Bell's new album Krai, available world-wide on April 29, 2014. Inspired by the lesser-known corners of Bell's homeland and written entirely in her native Russian, Krai is Bell's second LP and first large-scale composition. Lead single "Perm Krai", about a region in Russia's interior and its 16th century Cossack inhabitants, is available for stream and embed here. Pitchfork premiered "Perm Krai," noting that the track "crawls with tightly compressed activity, all of it separated by clear lines." All formats of Krai are available for pre-order directly from New Amsterdam here, including a limited-edition red vinyl 12" LP packaged in double foil-stamped sleeves--a collaboration with London-based One Little Indian Records
