Zetetics (UA)

Property of Ukraine. Zetetics is an alternative music project of singer and songwriter Lika Bugaeva. Influenced from 90s alternative and experimental rock and electronic music, most notably Radiohead, Muse and Portishead. The music is centred around Lika’s distinctive rich and emotive vocals, reminiscent of Hanna Reid of London Grammar and Florence Welch of Florence + The Machine. Based in Kyiv, Ukraine.

In
 September 2019 Zetetics released their third studio album, titled 11:11. It is about self-knowledge and the purity of self-talk. Each song has an undertone of mystical realism — the genre that characterizes Zetetics. It's a key to fantastic, lyrical feelings that are beyond ordinary senses.

Zetetics present a new LP named Cold Star on November 24th. Apart from the polyrhythms intrinsic to Zetetics and the deep electronic sound with atmospheric guitars, the LP unveils a new side to Lika Bugaeva's existential but life-affirming lyrics. Gentle love nostalgia, personal catharsis, and storytelling dedicated to the best of human nature are the album's longline.
