  • Jordan

A New Zealand darkwave musician who combines dark electronica, folk noir, and industrial influences with etherial vocal melodies. Jordan usually writes "concept" albums with stories told song by song. You can find her first 4 CDs in full on her website and at last FM. The fifth (How the Dead Live) was comissioned by the New Zealand Arts Council and released in June this year.

Jordan also performed with a live band between 1999 and 2005 called "Dr Kevorkian & the Suicide Machine". Two of her CDs were recorded under this moniker.

    The Keening Song

    Jordan, I've just discovered your music and am amazed at the things you do! In the Keening Song, you've used invented words; did you create them? What were they inspired by? Other languages? Just sounds that seemed right?

      Hi Foolaciously. Thanks for your comment, it made my morning :) You're right, the Keening Song is invented words. I was concentrating on rhythm and tone - it is so much harder to get the right syllible count and vowel sound when using real words, so I decided not, to for once ;) I sang what seemed to work in terms of the feeling in the track and could ignore having to be "poetic" which was very freeing.
      Anyway, I am really glad you liked the track. Have a great Sunday!

    Well, my switch over to Uvumi was delayed by my trip to NZ. Was planning to hit up a music store there to look for your albums but got distracted by the sunshine and the beach! So, guess I'll need to find somewhere else to shop :-)

      you were in NZ?

      fantastic! How did you like Aotearoa? Very easy to get distracted by beaches there, yes. If you would like to order the new CD though, you can get it here at CD Baby http://www.cdbaby.com/Artist/JordanReyne . Welcome to Uvumi!
