About heilewandowski@gmail.com
Kaleema is Heidi Lewandowski, a multi-instrumentalist, composer, producer and vocalist from Buenos Aires who has managed to become a female reference in Latin American electronica after the release of her two studio albums "Nómada" (Tropical Twista Records, 2017) and "Útera" (Wonderwheel Recordings, 2021). Trained as a classical violinist, she released her debut album "Nómada" receiving critical acclaim for the way she seamlessly intertwines the contemporary with electronic elements and Latin American instrumental tradition. Her second studio album, "Útera" is an immersive album of exceptional quality, where we find the producer evolving artistically, personally and emotionally. Also built in her machine environment, exploring sophisticated electronic arrangements and advancing her defined and hypnotic vocal line in her production. The album is organized as a catalog that moves from one style to another, from one instrument and rhythm to another. Produced with a meticulous sound treatment and serene atmospheres that demonstrate that after her first reference "Nómada" (an album that bore great fruits), Kaleema returned with a more hypnotic energy and compositional precision, that advances in a line at times more dub, that returns in Andean winds and strong instrumental arpeggios. It is these combinations that make the listener float freely in a sea of emotions and contemplation. If "Nomad" focused on tribal vibes with a more raw or urban compositional relationship, here there is a meditative and introspective image that operates in time, creative fire and a work with rhythmic electronic music, which at times goes towards downtempo and ambient electronics to techno-like percussions. Her tours have taken her to some of the most prestigious stages of contemporary electronic music (MUTEK Montreal, Lollapalooza Chile, FUSION Festival, Primavera Sound) among others. In June 2022 she released her EP "Velo" through London's Eartlhy Measures label and is currently working on her third studio album to be released through New York's Wonderwheel Recordings.
