Nadja
Nadja is a duo of Aidan Baker & Leah Buckareff alternately based in Berlin, Germany and Toronto, Canada. Nadja originally began in 2003 as a solo project for Baker to explore the heavier/noisier side of his experimental/ambient guitar-based music. In 2005 Buckareff joined to make the project more than just a studio endeavour and allow Nadja to perform live. Together, they create music that has been variously described as drone metal, ambient doom, and shoegazer, combining theatmospheric and textural elements of electronic and experimental music with metal and post-rock structures.
Nadja has toured extensively in North America and Europe and has released numerous albums with such labels as Alien8 Recordings, Important Records, Beta-lactam Ring Records, Conspiracy Records, Hydrahead Records, and Crucial Blast. They have also collaborated with a number of artists, including Black Boned Angel, Fear Falls Burning, A Storm of Light, and Pyramids.
