“My music is a blend of eternal sadness and hope. I am certain that we can find our light by embracing our darkness”.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nadia Kodes first appeared on the MKULTRASOUND Podcast 6\/17\/2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nadia Kodes, a Russian singer-songwriter and pianist, hitchhiked more than 20,000 km across Europe. Originally from St. Petersburg, her extensive time on the road directly shaped her lifestyle and her dark, cinematic, piano-based rock sound. Her recent music is heavily rooted in her nomadic experiences and personal reinvention.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kodes gained an international audience in 2017 after releasing an acoustic cover of the goth-metal band Type O Negative\u2019s song \u201cAnesthesia\u201d. It was well-received by the band\u2019s camp and led to her tribute album Acoustic Rust.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 2023 Nadia released a single with an American metal band October Noir and Forever Haunt became one of the most popular songs for both artists. The new album Pitch Dark, Red Light (2024) is inspired by Nadia’s personal story. It’s a collection of seven tracks celebrating strength in overcoming fears, while also exploring the sensitive side and fragility of human nature. Songs like Sinner (Just Like You) and Never Lost Again are powerful, yet gothic and melancholic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mixed and mastered by Igor Smirnov, Acoustic Rust captures a sonic clarity that allows Kodes\u2019 classical foundation and vocal nuance to take center stage. The project stands as both tribute and transformation\u2014an interpretation that expands the emotional vocabulary of the original works.
Her 2024 album “Pitch Dark, Red Light” and viral tracks like “Traitor” focus heavily on overcoming fear, finding freedom on the road, and personal statements of independence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Her original material further reflects this duality. Her latest single, \u201cThank You,\u201d \u2014 which features Francesco DiCosmo, the bassist who recorded on Evanescence\u2019s Fallen \u2014 subtly nods to her influences while carving out a distinct voice, and she is currently working on her forthcoming album Duality, which promises to expand on the emotional and sonic themes introduced in Acoustic Rust.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
