Andrea Burelli is an interdisciplinary artist based in Berlin, originally from Venice, Italy. She works as a composer, vocalist, multi-instrumentalist, lyricist, visual artist, and radio host. In her current artistic practice, she explores the intersection between composition and expanded poetry, unfolding across vocal performance, electroacoustics, processed sonic material, analog sound synthesis and video. She engages with specific musical traditions while translating experimental compositional approaches and performative processes into a cohesive, personal and genre-defying musical language.
Burelli has worked on international projects and publications in Berlin, Chicago, Budapest, Granada, Athens, Cagliari, Rome, Bilbao and London.
She has released a prolific catalogue on imprints such as American Dreams, Rohs!, and Lontano Series. She has played at Suporbooth Festival for Moog, Hive Film Festival for Refuge Worldwide, Morphine Raum and at leading venues of Berlin’s avant-garde music scene, featuring collaborations with musicians such as: André Vida, Rashad Becker, Hilary Jeffery, Lucio Capece, Szolt Sőrés, Friede Merz, and string musicians of the Solistenensemble Kaleidoskop.
Her current projects include collaborations as a lyricist, singer and violinist, with drone artists Abul Mogard (Houndstooth), Rafael Anton Irisarri (Room40, Ghostly International), and dance experimental artist Gabber Eleganza (Presto!? Records, Never Sleep).
She was a fellow of the Amplify Berlin music residency where she collaborated with James Young (Darkstar - Warp Records). She has received support from Musikfonds for her electro-acoustic compositions and for exploring off-market, cutting-edge software such as Bronze. She has received the support of Initiative Musik for the direction, management and production of her last LP, Sonic Mystics for Poems. She received support by the Goethe-Institut for curating and participating in a joint interdisciplinary residency with painter Emilio Cerezo at Stress Studio Athens. She won the call Composing Sonic Futures by the Spatial Sound Institute for a commission of a piece for her ambient music and literary series How To Survive Difficult Times.
Andrea Burelli has produced music podcasts for Rinse France, Cashmere Radio, Radio Quântica, and Reboot FM, curating selections of experimental, electronic, and contemporary music. She is currently a resident DJ at Refuge Worldwide with Gems, a show devoted to traditional, classical, and experimental listening.
“A partial praise, a partial rejection. This is how the new and the good emerge.” (Groove Magazine)
“The result is as versatile as she herself: Art song meets contemporary music meets pop meets electronic sounds.”
(INM | Field Notes | Contemporary Music Berlin)
“Spectres of arcane folk and sacred musics elegantly mingle in the Andrea Burelli trio’s etheric ambient chamber music, dwelling in space adjacent Mabe Fratti, Lucy Duncombe, Tarta Relena.” (Boomkat)
“Andrea creates a folklore starting from what beats in her chest, from a voice and from the magical ability
to suspend whatever is happening around her.” (The New Noise)
“From Berlin emerges this ancient and futuristic chant dedicated to the Mediterranean, the cradle of myths and dreams that can enchant.” (Rockerilla)
“Between virtuosity and essentiality, what takes shape is a deeply evocative landscape that transcends genre with awareness, offering an imaginative listening environment charged with emotional intensity.” (SoWhat)
