SIENNÁ is a composer, keyboardist and singer. She was born in Kyoto, Japan. She moved to Norway in 1995 as a graduate student, completed her Master's program in cultural sciences at the University of Bergen in 2004. In the same year, her musical talent was discovered by Norwegian cutting-edge producer Abòn. She could then focus towards her old childhood dreams of music.
The music is "a richly-textured bed of melodic layers, freeform electronica and jazzy flourishes which becomes the deepest house in the galaxy when the groove kicks in (Kris Needs - Update Magazine, UK)". She has been compared to the likes of Yellow Magic Orchestra (Y.M.O.), Goldfrapp, Eat Static and Underworld.
She has released 1 EP “Ambience (2005)” and 1 LP “A pure Land (2008)” to date, and has plans to release the 2nd LP in the spring of 2009. One of her tracks was featured by Philips Electronics, and pre-loaded on Philips MP3 players & audio-devices for worldwide distribution during the year of 2006. It was also demonstrated in stores on a worldwide campaign for Philips recent MP3 product "Go Gear" (see http://www.bentmusic.ca). The UK launch of "A Pure Land" was celebrated at Chinawhite by Piccadilly Circus, London in November 2008.

New Release from Section 27 Netlabel [S27-028] ADVIRUZ - NIGHTLY SOUNDS (IDM, Glitch, Experimental)
Adviruz is the artist psedonym of Istanbul’s Pinar Gurcan, whose growing passion for sound is translated through her music. Since an early age, she has been listening and mimicking opera singers, writing melodies, songs and poems in which she spoke her mind and reflected her soul. All of which are evident on "Nightly Sounds", an 8 track album which is the equivilent of having a glimpse into a diary, learning of love lost, gained, a snapshot of the human condition from which we can all draw experience... All of these things are developed musically into minimalistic glitch, noise, idm, experimental music and microsounds, influences reminiscent of work by artists like Tujiko Noriko, Mira Calix, Plaid and Björk.
Adviruz and Section 27 present "Nightly Sounds", an intricately woven and rewarding musical tapestry. Available now for free download.
