Clara Cappagli of Agar Agar has started a new journey as Clara Kimera. I first heard of this through a collaboration with Helen Island. And then on March 14 her first EP called Dial 8 came out. These 7 tracks are everything to be liked right now, weirdly experimental yet strangely pop. ‘Club of cute and sleepy’ indeed seems like the perfect description. It came out on Tamago Records and there’s a beautiful video for ”Aside” as well. You can get the release digitally through Nina.
Clara Kimera is playing The Great Escape next month, having just appeared at Les Inrocks Festival alongside the similarly great Eat-Girls.
I also recommend her guest spot at NTS, where she shares some of the influences for the new record.
