silent green presents
Born and raised in Athens and based in Berlin, singer-songwriter, pianist, trumpeter, film composer, and performer Melentini has been expressing herself through a diverse range of musical styles for nearly two decades. Starting her discography with the electronic collective Sequence Theory Project alongside with her ever since producer Richard König they recorded and released together their first album in 2010. In 2013, Melentini formed her own ensemble in Athens, The Running Blue Orchestra, and has since performed in numerous venues and international festivals.
Her works blend melancholic, contemporary, ambient, avant-garde, and synthwave elements—often pulsing with rhythmic grooves and dancing beats. Her voice, cryptical, rich, and distinctive, reveals traces of Greek and Balkan folk traditions that deeply shape her melodic sensibility.
Her upcoming fourth studio album, Everything We’ve Lost, was recorded in Athens at Lotus Studio, produced by Vasilis Dokakis, and features a cast of exceptional musicians. The record is deeply influenced by the humanitarian crisis of recent years and her own experience of migration. At its core lies a reflection on displacement, loss, lovers separated by distance—poetic on the fragility and endurance of human connection but also intimate within urban Infrastructure.
Dalai Cellai
Dalai Cellai is a Berlin-based singing cellist and composer who creates original music for cello and voice. In her solo project, both forms of expression merge into a shared, unmistakable sonic language.
Driven by the desire to develop original compositions in which voice and cello interact on equal footing, she has shaped an artistic approach that unites resonance, physicality, and emotional depth. Through live looping and improvisational elements, she expands the acoustic space of her instrument, transforming individual motifs into multilayered, evolving soundscapes.
Dalai’s work combines cinematic vastness with intimate immediacy. Resonant cello lines meet a clear, sustaining voice; fragile passages intensify into powerful moments. Her music moves freely between atmospheric textures, experimental structures, and song-like forms—without committing to a fixed genre.
Her solo release Ellipsis to Infinity exemplifies this distinctive artistic voice. The work unfolds with a dense, almost filmic dramaturgy and reflects her interest in inner states, transitions, and emotional transformation.
