Islaja
Islaja is the moniker of Finland-born, Berlin-based sound artist Merja Kokkonen. The ever inventive musician often furnishes her malformed pop with surprising influences and bold instrumentation. Islaja’s sixth album ‘Tarrantulla’ was recorded live with percussionist Tatu Rönkkö (Liima, Efterklang). On top of that, she’s a highly charismatic stage presence, whose wry humor and impulsive left turns tend to shake up performances and recordings.
