The shape-shifting productions of Chinese-Malaysian artist Flora Yin-Wong can be traced back to an eclectic range of sources – from lo-fi field recordings and UK dance culture to Daoist ideas and traditional Chinese instruments. Growing up in London, she started out as a guitarist in art-rock bands before finding her footing in the club scene, playing house and techno at her own parties.

A longtime associate of Berlin experimental label PAN, Flora Yin-Wong contributed ghostly melodies to the acclaimed ambient compilation mono no aware and has recently released her debut album Holy Palm on Modern Love – an exploration of metaphysics, memory and superstition that weaves a vivid sonic tapestry through field recordings and abstract textures.

Her sketch moves under the shadow of a dembow rhythm, marking out the beat in heavily syncopated ticks and cracks. Chimes and bells ring out like haunted clocks and plucked balalaika strings seem to echo the passing of time, but these eerily ancient sounds soon collide with computer futurism thanks to Flora’s off-kilter arrangement and piercing dramatic percussion.
