James K

Born in 1989 in Rochelle, New York, Jamie Krasner aka James K is a musician, singer and producer of electronic music. Active since the early 2010s, she develops an experimental sound universe where ambient, vaporous synthesizers, noisy textures and intimate, fragmented vocal writing intersect. She regularly collaborates with figures from the avant-garde electronic scene, including Yves Tumor, Eartheater and Drew McDowall, and participates in various independent collectives and labels linked to the New York and Berlin underground. After the release of the Rum EP (2013), her debut album Pet (2016) marks her remarkable entry into the sphere of experimental ambient pop, followed by the 036 EP (2021). She collaborates on the Seth projects with producer Gobby, as well as Funky Doodle with DJ Richard and Draveng in 2019. In 2022, she released Random Girl, a record acclaimed for its blend of vocal fragility, electronic experimentation and deconstructed pop structures. Her releases are often accompanied by a visual and performative dimension, underlining a singular aesthetic at the crossroads of sound art, electronic music and intimate poetry. She also released the live albums Psychic Liberation Show (2019) and Elektra (Scream Through the Eyes of a Statue) (2024), followed by her third studio album Friend (2025), before an international tour.
