New York, NY (Top40 Charts) The Brooklyn synth and electro artist wields her mighty hammer with epic Led Zeppelin cover.
Award-winning synth, cyberpunk and electronic rock artist, songwriter and producer C Z A R I N A takes a monumental Led Zeppelin original and recreates it with powerful swagger and thunderous drama in her latest release entitled "The Valkyrie (Immigrant Song)." The Brooklyn-based artist combines retro-futurist synths reminiscent of 80s films such as Tron, Blade Runner, and Flash Gordon with progressive modern rock thru giant distorted guitars and heart-thumping drums, creating a new landscape to support her unmistakable hyper-dynamic vocal range worthy of Asgardian lore.
"According to Norse mythology, Valkyries are the female hosts who usher the souls of the brave warriors to Valhalla to aid the gods in preparation for the Ragnarök: A series of events and a great battle that will determine the fate of the universe," C Z A R I N A says, explaining the rebranded title of her cover — and its timely message. "The world as it stands now is facing our very own and very real Ragnarök: A sobering reality that is affecting all humanity, regardless of race, religion, background and location.
"The Valkyries now call for unity amongst all the brave warriors and for all forces to rise, armor up and draw out their mighty swords. We have a real battle to fight. It is a battle that will test our abilities to maintain wellness not only in physical forms, but also the expanse of our emotional, mental, spiritual, and intellectual capacities. For the first time, everyone in this world is united, all aboard a singular vessel. Our unity and our response to crisis determines our real qualities and who we truly are as humans. We will remember this period not by its outcome, but by how we usher ourselves and each other through in strength, in kindness, in love, in fealty and respect for all humanity as a whole."
A seasoned musician and creative professional inspired by her love for futurist culture, cyberpunk, 80s tech noir, mecha robots, martial arts and Japanese Animes, C Z A R I N A (aka Vero Faye Kitsuné) has created a distinctively compelling, artistic universe that is a true fusion of her unique strengths in both visual and musical artistry. Her eclectic list of musical and visionary influences include Vangelis, John Carpenter, Nine Inch Nails, Massive Attack, TOOL, A Perfect Circle, Bjork, The Black Queen, The Cranberries, David Bowie, Led Zeppelin, Heart, QUEEN, Debbie Harry, Kate Bush, Annie Lennox and Siouxie Sioux. Dabbling with atmospheric synths and lush cinematic tones, C Z A R I N A takes her audience into a smoke-filled, neon-lit dimension, with vivid, picturesque and poignant lyricism, sonic guitars, catchy melodies and powerful vocal hooks which are all signature to her unique soundscape. "PAINTED HOLOGRAMS," the critically-acclaimed debut 9-track masterwork LP by C Z A R I N A was released November 11, 2018, landing her several top placements in the year's Best Artists lists, including the coveted Music Connection Magazine's Hot 100 Indie Artists. In October 2019, C Z A R I N A released her video game-inspired, bushido cyberpunk chanbara music film, "BLAZE: Dances of the Yokai." The music film, which she wrote with her creative partner, DeadlyKawaii, and co-directed with Deliris Films (Spain), quickly earned a series of eminent International Film Festival nominations, winning Best Music Video at the New York Film Awards, along with her self-produced title track "Blaze" winning Best Original Song at Indie Short Fest in Los Angeles.
