FienXSol

Season 2023, Ep. 339

FienXSol is a visionary songwriter, mesmerizing MC, and innovative producer, hailing from the vibrant borough of Queens, NY. What sets her apart in the musical landscape is her extraordinary ability to seamlessly blend the realms of Hip Hop, Rock, Pop, and Electronic music, creating a delectable sound that defies the constraints of contemporary trends.


Born in the picturesque city of La Paz, Bolivia, FienXSol's early years were steeped in the rich tapestry of poetry. Her love for words found its perfect expression in Rap Music, a genre she discovered upon her arrival in the bustling metropolis of New York City at the age of 11. Enrolled in a Catholic School in the heart of Manhattan's Hell’s Section, she navigated the challenges of a new language and culture by immersing herself in the transformative power of music. Rap and Rock became her steadfast companions, providing solace and inspiration as she forged her path.


The fusion of Rock and Rap, exemplified by legends like Aerosmith and Run DMC in their iconic collaboration "Walk This Way," ignited FienXSol's desire to create music that challenged conventions. In college, she encountered Chris Sibilla, an aspiring producer who became her mentor, introducing her to the intricate world of music production. This marked the beginning of a musical journey that transcended genres, as she delved into Jazz, Blues, Classical, and the art of DJ’ing.


FienXSol's passion and talent caught the attention of DJ Alex 'Flash' Takasaki from Toronto, Canada, who included her track in his 2001 mixtape. This early recognition paved the way for her role as the MC for the eclectic drum & bass group SUISSE MODULAR, culminating in the release of their acclaimed debut EP "Fly Me to the Lunar" in 2004 on Galactic Dust Records.


As she stands on the cusp of a new chapter, FienXSol is ready to ascend once again. Currently working on her debut solo album, she has already released a series of vibrant singles. Her music, a kaleidoscope of influences, effortlessly weaves together Rock, Pop, Hip Hop, and Electronic elements, creating a sonic experience that is uniquely FienXSol. With a spirit that defies conformity and a sound that resonates beyond boundaries, FienXSol is a trailblazer in the ever-evolving landscape of contemporary music.
