onili

Onili burst onto the local scene in 2006 having returned from a prolonged exile in Paris, set up her studio in Tel Aviv, and started the recording her debut album with top producer Jonathan Levy (Izabo) & her partner Barak Kram . Throughout the next 2 years she not only collaborated with Israel's top urban & underground talents, but burnt Tel-Aviv's hottest stages and venues with her pink-pink- assed-out show, steadily building a fanbase verging on cult following. Her Paris years, whilst alluding to a past somewhat shady, have also included lending her vocal arrangement and performance skills for Superman Lovers 2001 summer-smash hit, Starlight . ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wsio3uDnwm4 ) First release was Games, hitting underground fans, then gaining mainstream recognition via use in high rotation fashion commercial ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mi_J7XLVlbM ) . Sentimental followed, backed with a pile of remixes from Israel's sickest kats ( Kutiman {throu-you}, i.e. 21 y/o prodigy Borgore, Soulico Crew's Sabbo, Kalbata, Jazzsteppa & NDV... ), and a prestigious licensing from NBC Networks prime-time drama, "Life" ( http://vids.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=vids.individual&videoid=49904858 ) . Onili's current line-up consists of herself accompanied not only by her infamous Mad Machinery Extravaganza, but also by drum-master Barak Kram ( busiest drummer in town), who provides the solid basis of a beat-monster, lady-magnet, and vibe-generator all in one. Together they form an mindblowing duo and rock all kind of stages ( from small clubs to huge festivals) The 2010 incarnation of Onili's artistic entity is supported by the malicious headhunt for the Onili Juvenile Workshop, an ever-growing crew of young visual, conceptual and social artists, photographers, designers, creative contributors, and so on. Not forgetting onili's new attraction to video that led her to direct, shoot & edit their videos.
