Dinky makes her evolution from inaugural DJ to singer songwriter and front stage performer with ‘Dimension D’ on Visionquest. This vinyl version of her groundbreaking, highly acclaimed album contains an exclusive new track ‘Sass’

The project shows a tender side to the Chilean mistress and unravels a voice as delicate as paper caught dancing in the wind. Within each track she transforms into a new character to tell complex stories about relationships and encounters, capturing episodes of her life from New York to Berlin and back to her Chilean roots. Dinky structures the music with the looseness of jazz, the ethereal vocals of modern stars such as Beth Gibbons and Goldfrapp, while softly embedding the rhythm of the night.

Her drive to make music brought her to Berlin a decade ago where she quickly became adominant force in dance music, making her mark through releases on Carpark, Cocoon, Ostgut,and the critically acclaimed ‘Anemik’ album in 2009 on Mathew Jonson’s Wagon Repair. Her fifth studio album, ‘Dimension D’ sees her evolve into singer-song writer and performer and take on anew musical direction.

Long term friends with the Visionquest collective from their hedonistic days residing in Berlin, Dinky’s fresh approach fits within their ethereal and otherworldly style and follows the Footprintz album earlier this year.

Matthew Styles also coproduced and mixed the album and will perform the album live in a series of dates this summer.
