Following Helsinki-based producer Tari’s (Taras Protchenko) collaborations with Allison Data over the recent years, he presents a debut EP and World Canvas label debut in the form of ‘exp./ moments’, a release of three original electronic compositions.
Tari’s musical direction is guided and informed by overarching motifs of sentimentality: The release’s songs bring together harmonies interwoven with voices carrying a sense of disembodiment, while reaching for something in the close vicinity and further in the distance. The EP’s songs display Tari’s sense for sparse yet detailed and determined harmonic and ambient sonic movements, which present themselves as a body of work, reminiscent of a space of scattered lushness and dissolving boundaries.
The release comes with a remix by Tari’s close friends and collaborators Queendyster, Allison Data and Acedia & features an original photography by Boris Protchenko.

This month, DJ Chou Chou invites Amsterdam-based musician ity, who co-runs the Seedlink+ label. For this mix he selected some songs to play overseas from an imaginary island. Songs are interrupted by incoming frequencies picked up by an antenna on the roof. A shelter made out of things that washed ashore. Going from folk electronica to 4x4 vocoder club tracks. A party on your own island.

Elvin Brandhi and Nadah El Shazly refuse to turn away from the horror. The intercontinental duo’s Pollution Opera album is an uncompromising futurist depiction of our disfigured, dystopian, and dying reality. Facing hell in full defiance, the experimental noise album catapults itself through a volatile compound of breathless shouts, screams, and screeches, in collision with vocal samples, environmental recordings, and acousmatic sounds. Ten tracks cover the spectrum of electroacoustic fragments and vocalizations, treacherously suspended between the roar of engines and synth distortion, of evocative intonations or guttural retching.

First conceived in 2020, Pollution Opera bubbled up organically from a first tandem motorbike ride through El Shazly’s hometown of Cairo. Singing and screaming through the second-loudest city in the world, Brandhi and Shazly found the extreme noise pollution served as catharsis from the suffocating smog that surrounded them. They then took these sonic specimens into studios across years and countries—from the initial recording and sessions in Egypt to Uganda, where their so-called “cacophony carbon orchestra” would carry into simultaneous but separate residencies at Nyege Nyege in Kampala. There, Brandhi and Shazly reprised the role of the motorbike as their “stage,” in a city where motorbikes are the main mode of public transport. They then developed a live A/V performance from video material captured by Arno Mery, collected from their travels, and reworked by Egyptian artist Omar El Sadek during Banlieues Bleues Festival 2023 in France.

The result is what the artists themselves describe as “an uncompromising world-spew, a shameless alloy of love and hate.” Haptic knocking, barking dogs, and human growls trample El Shazly’s famously evocative Egyptian singing style on “CRÎi Me A River.” Breathless vocal cut-ups and samples are bulldozed by arrhythmic acoustic percussion on “Danse Le Flou.” There are moments of respite within all the chaos, however, whether in the heavily pitched, Auto-Tuned opening of “Pollute Bold” or the wonderfully melodic closer of “Crisp Heart”—its derelict rhythmic thrust giving a listener something to dance about.

Both artists lend their unique positioning and idiosyncrasies to Pollution Opera, whether it’s in artist, vocalist, and musician Brandhi’s avant-garde noise music pedigree as both a solo artist and member of father-daughter duo Yeah You, or
singer, composer, and producer El Shazly’s hybrid catalogue combining electronic music with contemporary classical. Together, in asking the question of what a postmodern opera might sound like, the duo offer their existential answer in the true spirit of the often playful and ironic philosophical position by offering no answer at all.

Through a sharp selection of experimental electronics, post-club compositions, and hip-hop, personalbrand crafts a mix that feels both dystopian and deconstructed. This set offers a stark vision of the contemporary world, delving into its failures, frenetic intensity, and hyper-accelerationism. The bold juxtaposition of avant-garde sounds and rap-infused tracks creates a potent artistic experience, immersing the listener in an atmosphere of social anticipation, urging them to feel the underlying urgency before it becomes reality.
