.a nice balance between modern pop and vintage sounds, with Heidemann's strong vocals pulling it all together." - Brooklyn Vegan

"...her music, comprised of synths, bass, and analog drum programming, is largely unobtrusive, allowing her 

voice to rise to the forefront and create a somewhat brooding mood." - PopMatters

"...masterfully playful, impacting, and superbly minimalist." - Indie Shuffle

Today sees the release of the debut EP from Brooklyn's HEIDEMANN, the new solo endeavor from Brooklyn's Monika Heidemann. After spending time fronting the NYC band Xylos and collaborating with other experimental and electronic pop artists, Monika has stepped out on her own for her Orphan EP. She released two singles from the EP, "Well Well" (soundcloud) and "Swords" (soundcloud). 

The EP was co-produced and mixed by Sal Principato (Liquid Liquid) and Jim Orso (former drummer from Holy Ghost!), along with Josh Ascalon and Robin Macmillen. The EP is comprised of three original songs, and a cover of ABBA's track "The Visitors."

After spending years collaborating with artists in both the electronic pop and experimental worlds (including fronting the NYC band Xylos), HEIDEMANN has stepped out on her own as a solo artist, performing minimalist pop songs with electric bass and pulsing analog drum machines, supporting her fearlessly intimate vocals.
