avanti e poi indietro (mix)

London-based Egyptian-French filmmaker and artist Susu Laroche @tsvsvnami (one half of Fertile Crescent with Oxhy, and most recently released a collaborative project with Mobbs on Modern Love) returns with a long-awaited new solo album.

Longtime collaborator of the Doyenne label after tracks on the first cassette as a split with Flora Yin-Wong, and a cover for the 'Venus Rising From The Sea' compilation via Doyenne x Boomkat. Here she hones her signature brooding Middle Eastern melodies, dabke drums and haunted vocalisations into the culmination of a contemporary artefact arriving as a wax-sealed box.

STREAM / PRE-ORDER FULL ALBUM: https://doyenne-books.bandcamp.com/album/d-09-war-against-the-lie 

After the discovery of an artefact known only as 'Body 53' in the British Museum - 'human skeletal remains; ribbon; comb; diadem; ear-ring; collar; necklace; bowl; cosmetic sample' - Laroche inquired deeper into the connections to where the body was found, at the Royal Cemetery at Ur in Southern Iraq. Coming across Queen Puabi, a prominent figure in ancient Sumer found at the same grounds, the artist drew parallels between the shadowy figure often cited as a queen, consort, or priestess, with the Sufi female saint, Rabia. 

Alongside these mytho-historical documentations, her work with Sufi texts including 'Al Hallaj Tawasin' (Book of the Purity of the Glory of the One) formed the basis of the lyrics embedded in the album. 'War Against The Lie' devises a para-fictional account of a historical law that governed this period of ancient Zoroastrian civilisation in Persia, and a buried demand for truth.

The Moth

A sound offering I made the day Pluto entered Aquarius, but it brings a resonant energy with this full moon in Scorpio.
Let all the rotten come out.

Played at the 1st Edition of GLOOM at Kwia, Berlin.

From my heart to yours<3

Rattle #24 w/ Rumina (17/04/25)

"This album is an amalgamation of works about my desire to explore places with my camera, in search of a voice of reason and personal reflection. People enjoy travelling to escape from the realities of life and to enjoy the vastness of earth, people also enjoy travelling to see the wonders of the earth and see the beauties of it, be it walking in the forest or strolling by the coast of the sea. I enjoy travelling as it is a way for me to not think about the shackles of society and have a conversation with myself.

Travel Bag - to the middle of nowhere! is an homage to my mother and grandmother, who inspired me with their passion for exploration."
