a moving soundtrack hybrid mix by london-based artist hezen featuring emotive lyricism and hauntingly cinematic soundscapes which touches on both the topics and genres that influence her.

hezen has carved out a distinct niche in the music world. drawing inspiration from electronic, dark pop, and avant-garde styles, her music is a fusion of ethereal vocals, intricate beats, and lush, atmospheric production. hezen’s sound is often described as otherworldly, blending emotional depth with a modern, experimental edge. releasing her debut ep, ‘stigma’, in 2017, hezen has been building an universe which has a juxtaposition of beauty and extremities whilst being playful and always referencing to the world around her. earlier this year, hezen released a string of singles, ‘pure again’ and ‘au clair de la lune’, which included club edits to allow her music to be played in the spaces she feels most comfortable in. whilst her music is completely captivating, you witness the full breadth of her talent when she’s performing live – a stage presence like no other. this is witnessed in full force at playbody – a relatively new experimental party and collective that hezen is a resident and curator of. using the design and architecture of the space to bring the audience in and explore what it means to have human connection in a club space.

recently releasing a collaborative single with hasznat and more music on the way, we thought it would be the perfect time to have hezen on untitled 909 to chat more about her musical journey so far, how she got into production, dig a little deeper into playbody and her work with the collective and her exciting new move into hybrid sets.

Ūmboma 

Miss Alicia (she/her) & Omar Ahmad (he/him)

Ūmboma is a global-forward sound experience led by Miss Alicia and Omar Ahmad. Ūmboma blends of Afro, Arab, and Latin contemporary rhythms and energies that run from meditative & psychedelic, to frenetic and pulsing. Omar imbues live world drums into our sets to bridge the connection between the DJ booth and the audience, and they often invite attendees to play instruments they've brought along with with. The word Ūmboma is a combination of Swahili, Arabic, and Spanish words that translates to “a congregation of Freedom and Dance”. Ultimately they are seeking to cross borders and connect cultures (and spirits) through sound.

Notes on the Mix ///

"This mix is from our all night set from the Bunker back in July. We started that night with some mid tempo psychedelic rhythmic sounds then ramped up into a raucous peak that stayed high energy until the very end. This mix starts right when we were getting into peak time. In all of our sets we bounce off each other song by song in a very co-creative kind way. The music is a dynamic blend of Afro/Arab/latin global club tracks- almost like a dialogue between the cultures. There are different languages, chanting, etc all with a very percussive overlay. By this point we were really locked into building the vibes (and temperature!) of the room. We hope this mix not only makes listeners dance, but feel more connected to people around the world."
