BAFTA-nominated composer and producer Lena Raine today releases her much-anticipated debut album for Local Action, Oneknowing.
A multiple award-winning composer, Raine is best known for the soundtrack for last year’s video game Celeste, an break-out indie success story that tackles themes of anxiety, self-examination, depression and more and was considered by many the key indie game of 2018.
The period since Celeste’s release has seen Raine’s reputation reach an all-time high – she won best soundtrack at the prestigious GDC awards, performed with soundtrack legend Hans Zimmer at the opening of the flagship Game Awards and was most recently nominated for her first BAFTA. Although she’s released several non-soundtrack releases, both under her real name and her Kuraine alias, Raine considers Oneknowing her debut artist album – a 10 track set that ranges from distorted paranoia to ambient pop, brought together by the shimmering melodies that make her soundtracks so memorable.
A succinct but expansive record full of detail, Oneknowing represents Raine’s most personal and realised original material yet, while showing a different side to one of the most unique and accomplished composers of the modern era.
