What started out as a lo-fi bedroom project using portable synthesizers and cassette tape recorders has since evolved into some kind of dreamlike technicolour pop universe – one in which Singaporean electronic avant-pop musician The Analog Girl creates and performs using a myriad of illuminating instruments including the Tenori-On, Monome and Percussa AudioCubes.
Named by TIME magazine as one of 5 Music Acts To Watch in 2008, The Analog Girl has had audiences worldwide plugged into her sound at a spectrum of venues and festivals including CMJ Music Festival in New York, Nick Knightʼs SHOWstudio Revue in London, Worldtronics Festival at the Haus der Kulturen der Welt in Berlin, the Cirque Electrique in Paris, Superdeluxe in Tokyo, RRRec Fest in the Valley by Indonesia’s Ruang Rupa, Heineken Music Lab in Kuala Lumpur, and Mosaic Music Weekend at Esplanade – Theatres on the Bay in Singapore. She has also supported a number of international acts including Justice, Men I Trust, The KVB, Iceage, The Whitest Boy Alive and Telepathe.
Lead single ‘Feeling Light’ was featured on NME Asia, Bandwagon’s Hear65 and Singapore Community Radio on the week of its release. It is showcased on Apple Music’s Rising From Singapore playlist. A dance-pop track about feeling light in both the mental and visual sense of the word, ‘Feeling Light’ was mastered at Sterling Sound by Grammy Award winning mastering engineer Randy Merrill, who’s worked on Beck’s Hyperspace, Mark Ronson’s Late Night Feelings, and an inspiration for Awe – Lorde’s ‘Green Light’.

“If Tricky’s Dark and Brooding Maxinquaye album was launched into outer space on a rocket ship commanded by Björk, it might sound something like the Analog Girl.” TIME MAGAZINE
“…a solo artist who combined a table full of gadgets – creating unique beats and melodies – with projection and vocals to produce an impressive selection of tracks and a rather spellbinding experience.” THE AU REVIEW (on her performance at Culture Collide)
