Info for Daydreamer

YANA, a Polish composer and instrumentalist, returns with Daydreamer, her second solo album.

Known for her ability to fuse classical instruments with electronic textures, YANA delivers an emotional and cinematic journey through this new release.

Daydreamer delves deep into the human psyche, charting a path from inner darkness to emotional renewal. The album begins with introspective, melancholic pieces like "Now It Begins," which reflect themes of anxiety and self-reflection. As the album unfolds, it gradually shifts toward lighter, more hopeful tones. "Ikigai," inspired by the Japanese concept of finding purpose in life, features dynamic piano motifs and bright harmonies that symbolize a sense of personal awakening.

Other highlights include "Spring," which is filled with ethereal strings and rhythmic layers, capturing the feeling of renewal and hope after a long struggle. The album’s latter half emphasizes warmth and healing, with tracks like "Tender," gently reminding listeners of the power of self-compassion through delicate piano melodies.

Daydreamer is a beautifully crafted, atmospheric exploration of the emotional landscapes that define the human experience. YANA's ability to combine rich string arrangements with subtle electronic elements creates a soundscape that is both haunting and uplifting. Perfect for fans of contemporary classical music, ambient sounds, and thoughtful, immersive listening experiences. This album marks another step forward in YANA’s journey as an artist, offering listeners a deeply personal and transformative musical experience.

YANA /strong>(Joanna Bieńkowska)
instrumentalist and composer based in Gdańsk, Poland, where she graduated from the Academy of Music in the violin class. She has already performed many times in Poland and abroad, both solo and with chamber ensembles and orchestras.

YANA creates music that combines classical instruments: piano, strings, and electronics. In April 2022 she self-released her debut album „Solace“. The record features minimalist piano solo pieces and meditative dialogues between the piano and strings. At the same time, it includes complexed compositions based on electronics and the sound of analog synthesizers.

This whole spectrum of instruments and arrangements is a reflection of the artist’s musical preferences, changing sensibility, exploration, and constant excitement about new textures.

While creating the videos for the singles which promoted her album, she cooperated with amazing visual artists from the Berlin-based collective Magnificent Matter as well as with the polish director Magdalena Zielińska and dop Mateusz Kanownik. The music video for the song „June” created by this duo premiered on prestigious platform Director’s Library.

In May 2022 YANA opened Robot Koch’s new album release event in Berlin with the support act. In summer 2022 YANA promoted her debut album performing as one of the artists invited for the biggest concert tour in Poland- Męskie Granie – she performed among the biggest stars in the polish music industry.

YANA cooperated, among others, with the singer Oly. or the producer and multi-instrumentalist of MaJLo. Together with the producer under the pseudonym Tjomur, they covered the song „We Contain Multitudes“ by Ólafur Arnalds, which was appreciated and shared by the artist himself.

YANA’s songs were heard not only in Polish but also on foreign radio stations, such as Berlin’s neoFM / FluxFM or one of the most famous American radio stations with alternative music – KEXP. YANA composed the soundtrack for the short movie „Nice to Meet You“ directed by Marianna Korman, which premiered in June 2021 at the international Tofifest Film Festival in Toruń, Poland.
