Relentless and heavy dark electronic beats mingle with anger and anguish on Liliane Chlela’s latest album “Safala”. The Lebanese producer and hybrid DJ tapped into her personal memories to bring forth a sonic concoction anchored in the inherited oral epistemologies of her ancestors. Memories intertwine with Beirut, using incantations inherited from Chlela’s grandmother as building blocks to build an eight track album. From warding off the evil eye to protest sounds from the past year of events in Lebanon, the album haunts the listener to invoke a striking elegy on terror and anger, while inducing a rollercoaster of sonic eruptions.

Most of the sound palette was organically produced to mimic the remains of situations during which Chlela’s sonic memory aligned with the ‘keywords’ from the aforementioned incantations.
