Last year Vandana Jain, a Brooklyn-based graphic designer turned experimental pop performer, quietly released her debut EP Vandamner complete with her own intricate album art, handmade record sleeve and limited pressing all sealed with a touch of red wax and twine. It is that same attention to intimate detail that infects her music as well, lending both to its beauty and to its raw, slightly uncomfortable quality.

Raised in India and educated in London, Vandana has collected an eclectic tapestry of both musical and aesthetic influences over the years, all of which find a place in the music. Everything from Portishead to Pink Floyd, Bollywood music via India and the rave scene in London lend to her unique layered style of glitchy beats, electronic swells and heavy synth melodies that lay beneath Jain's emotive front and center vocal play.

Jain performs as a duo with Yusuke Yamamoto. Her band is associated with the indie underground and DIY community in NYC playing electro-synth-post-punk-pop music.

Vandana's debut full length ANTI VENUS is launching on the 29th of October.
