Amina Hocine



And so we continue on in our quest for great music from Scandinavian princesses.
Amina Hocine is a swedish-algerian musician making lo-fi ambient music. She was born in Göteborg Sweden 8th of may 1991. Her mother was a classical pianist so she started playing piano and violin at an early age. She later studied music at High School and then started music college on an island right outside of Gothenburg called Tjörn.
Check out the beautiful ambient sounds of Amina Hocine.
Then check out her album.

Thanks to Meadow Music for the inspiration.
So finally today, check out her new album right here:

 

It's a mix between new and old. It's the last year. It's me now. It's me then. It's hope and despair. It's a homage to all the living and dead, a cry to the moon, a laugh along the way, a bloody hug and nerves of steel. 

released 15 April 2012
