Today, emerging Franco-Brazilian artist
Yndi FKA critically acclaimed performer
Dream Koala releases her highly anticipated debut LP,
Noir Brésil; Listen/stream
HERE.
PAPER Magazine raves, “Yndi’s syrupy smooth vocals glide effortlessly,” while Office Magazine says “the smooth tones in her voice interact with the distinctly Brazilian percussion in a really beautiful way. The music envelopes you.” Cosmopolitan France praises, “an enveloping and almost angelic voice…Yndi Da Silva, 27 y-o, French-Brazilian trans singer, is fascinating. Hybrid and timeless, her debut album Noir Brésil is a success,” while ELLE France says “Yndi captivates.”
Formerly known as
Dream Koala, Yndi decided to retire the moniker and began writing what ultimately became
Noir Brésil—a modern pop album where afro-Brazilian percussion meets French and Portuguese poetry to create an immersive soundscape. As Dream Koala, she received praise from the likes of
NPR Music (“feels like an uninhibited foray into a new musical dimension, a less dissonant, sweeter take on FKA Twigs’ experiments”) and
Vogue (“akin to having strange words whispered into your ear as you experience an epic 3D soundscape.”) She released the EPs
Odyssey (2013),
Earth. Home. Destroyed. (2014) and
Exodus (2015), as well as popular single “
We Can’t Be Friends,” gaining her international success and garnering millions of streams across platforms.
