Profiling the Artist





Why: I have looked at profiling the artist in order to show her background and gain a wider interest of the artist.

Biography
NLX is Natasha Alexandra, who grew up in Canada’s Steel City, from an early age she took her inspiration from such artists as Sarah McLachlan, Joni Mitchell, Nine Inch Nails and Depeche Mode, she now lives in New York, and often plays concerts at such bars and café’s (Rockwood Music Hall and Café Vivaldi).
For her latest album ‘BGF’ she worked with Bryan Kent Wong who is a producer and composer.
 
NLX manages her own label, and started out producing and distributing her music through CD Baby, which is an online distribution service for unsigned artists, it allows artists to sell their music through such outlets as Itunes, Amazon MP3, eMusic, Rhapsody, Napster, MySpace Music, Spotify, Liquid Digital, Zune, Last Fm, and many more.
 
Her music is coined as “fists in the air, tears on the floor, don’t look back but close the door” kind of music. However when she plays live, she is at her best. NLX doesn’t focus too much on being in the studio, she prefers to play to crowds in bars and café’s.

This will help in my studies because it shows how i have researched the artist and that i understand her style of music and style, by doing this i will be able to make the right sort of music video for the artist.
