As a producer, she has steadily built her repertoire, with a penchant for experimentation that's guided by an innate understanding of what makes a great song. Punctuating those musical attributes, her debut album “Holograma" on the Hallucienda label, further revealed the emergence of a songwriter hinting at influences ranging from the ambient vocal stylings of This Mortal Coil, to the electronica offerings of Bjork, without ever sounding like anything other than herself. Öona Dahl continues to develop her versatility as both producer, and DJ by effortlessly weaving through electronica, ambience, and cosmic warehouse grooves.
