About


Violent Divinity is Siteng’s elegy to the soul.” – UNXIGNED

Siteng is an interdisciplinary artist who seamlessly blends avant-garde electronica with emotive art pop, crafting music that is as innovative as it is soul-stirring. This Chinese-born, London-based singer-songwriter, producer, and multi-disciplinary artist infuses Eastern sensibilities into ambient electronic soundscapes, pushing the boundaries of experimental pop.

Siteng's debut EP Violent Divinity (2024) established her signature sound - a fusion of atmospheric electronica, theatrical vocals, and introspective lyrics. Exploring themes of feminine psyche, nature, and violence, the EP garnered critical acclaim from UNXIGNED, Illustrate Magazine, and Tunite Music, brought to life through an immersive London exhibition.

Defying the "good Asian kid" trajectory, Siteng forged her own path in electronic music. Self-taught and fiercely independent, she draws inspiration from Björk's sonic adventurousness, Kate Bush's vivid theatricality, and Eastern influences. Her journey from Shanghai to London culminated in an MA with Distinction in Performance Making from Goldsmiths, University of London, enriching her music with literary depth and narrative prowess.

Recognised as a rising talent, Siteng has been selected for Roundhouse's OnTrack and Sound and Music's In Motion artist programmes. As a Youth Music NextGen Fund recipient, Siteng's experimental bilingual songwriting in Broken (Home Is My Prison) earned a Lyricist nomination at the 2024 Youth Music Awards.


“《暴力神性 (Violent Divinity)》是Siteng谱给灵魂的挽歌。”——UNXIGNED

Siteng是一位江苏出生、现居伦敦的唱作人兼制作人,她巧妙将东方韵味注入氛围电子乐中,让前卫节奏与艺术流行风格碰撞,不断挑战实验流行乐的边界。

2024年,Siteng发行首张EP《暴力神性 (Violent Divinity)》,奠定了她的标志性风格——梦幻的氛围电子、戏剧化的唱腔,以及深刻内省的歌词。这张探索了女性心理、自然与暴力主题的EP,不仅获UNXIGNED、Illustrate Magazine和Tunite Music的好评,还在伦敦以浸没展形式呈现,全方位凸显其艺术视野。

本可做“懂事的亚洲小孩”的Siteng,毅然追求电子乐创作之路。这位自学成才的独立艺术家,汲取比约克的冒险精神、凯特·布什的戏剧诗意,融合东方元素。从上外英文系到伦敦大学金史密斯学院表演创作硕士,她的音乐创作酝酿着深厚的文学底蕴与叙事功力。

作为新锐音乐人,Siteng入选多个知名英国音乐项目,如Roundhouse的OnTrack和Sound and Music的In Motion作曲人发展项目。凭借作品《Broken (Home Is My Prison)》中独特的双语词作,她不仅赢得英国青年音乐NextGen基金支持,还入围2024年英国青年音乐奖作词人提名,彰显她作为跨文化音乐创作者的独特魅力。
