Pati Yang, born in Poland during the martial law of the early 1980s, spent the first 7 years of her life in a vibrant and surreal artists enclave under a strict communist regime, most often on tour with her father’s iconic punk band who underwent extreme danger to smuggle their anti regime message through the soviet censorship, playing a hugely influential role in the radical social and political change within the Eastern Block countries.
At 16 she escaped her home and country and arrived in London to write her first solo album. Her critically revered debut released by Sony in Poland in 1998 is still considered a genre defining milestone, which paved the way for the newly emerging wave of electronic artists that followed in her footsteps.
