As 2022 draws to its close, Alexandrina returns to the studio with her latest release, the pandemic seclusion-inspired, Sirin. The four-track Ep, released November 15, 2022, sees Alexandrina honing her production with a stylistic departure from the more piano-driven output of her earlier album work. An English-language release, Sirin is introduced by its eponymous track, a 4+ minute journey of rising tension and urgency. The Eps' lead single, Magnetic Eyes, provides an infectious slice of dream pop ripped straight from the Twin Peaks roadhouse. Black Magic then casts its spells through percussive stabs and melody-led House into a coming-of-age vibe of determined empowerment. Animal Power rounds out the Sirin experience. Perhaps the release’s most playful track, Animal Power, elicits the deepest depths of the underground, at home equally within the colored, poster-plastered walls of a Berlin squat as it emanating from speakers of world's most forward-thinking theatrical spaces. 

As a sum of its parts, Sirin is a complete musical narrative where the highs and lows of a twenty-year career come full circle. Embracing her singer-songwriter roots and the mythological origins of its namesake, albeit with eyes set firmly on the now, Sirin is a stylistic collage of everything that has come before. From the piano-laden early albums to the alternative pop single, Dupa pod (2016), the synthy embellishments of Second Bliss (2019), or the dreamlike yearning of Vânt în pânze (2021) Sirin blends it all, playful and maturely.

Music & Lyrics by Alexandrina
Track from the upcoming Alexandrina album, due in this fall

Pijamale reci

A gem of Romania's rich music scene, Alexandrina Hristov has prominently displayed her talents for nearly two decades. A singular artist with a diversely creative family tree, Alexandrina seamlessly blends music, visual art, and poetry across the breadth of her work, always aiming for multi-disciplinary experience, yet grounded in the emotional songwriting reminiscent of a Tori Amos or Kate Bush. Through organic community-based audience-building and an ever-demanding performance schedule, Alexandria's albums, Om de Lut (2009) and Flori de Spin (2014) have gained traction across Romania and her native Moldova’s most prestigious performance spaces, with Untold Festival and Electric Castle central among them. But her impact is not just locally-felt. Major cultural hubs like London, Nantes, and Paris have also hosted her eclectic live show. Such performances put the ultimate emphasis on the breadth of Alexandria's talent, as her these complex performances traverse the gamut of genre - from art pop to psychedelic rock; trip hop to free jazz - while utilising both traditional and electronic instrumentation. It is this that makes Alexandrina’s fanbase among the country's most passionate and engaged.
She graduated The Academy of Music, Theatre & Fine Arts.

2009 is the year of her debut album “Om de lut” (“Clay Man”), Alexandrina being its lyricist, interpreter and composer. The second album was out in 2014 and featured the hit single Orasul Umbre.

Alexandrina.
