KSYLEN
"Ksylen" [EP]

Ksylen’s 4-tracks EP incorporates EBM, post punk, wave, industrial and techno elements, and she radiates power with distorted vocals over spicy broken beats.
Ksylen’s music creates hypnotic and fizzy potions that remove awareness of our own essence and create a new state of mind.
She is part of the Female Pressure, an international network in the fields of electronic music and digital arts.

KSYLEN - Shaking Drones [ Catenation - Remix ]

Meira Asher’s work challenges accepted conventions of practice and genre, even within the supposed open-minded circles of the Avantgarde. A composer, performer and Human Rights activist, she freely oscillates between, through and beyond the fields of Sound art and Radio art. In the past 20 years her artistic practice has been focusing on in-depth and long- term projects, and she has been working assiduously, amassing many different projects in different veins. She is the producer of the independent Radioart show radioart106 since 2014 and a former lecturer at Haifa university's Art School (2012-22). Her works were released on Crammed, Sub Rosa, Auditorium, Raash Records and Ultima Ratio labels, but mostly independent through her own platforms. Her recent works include TANSIKتنسيق for Radio Reina Sofia Madrid, a Hebrew version of Antonin Artaud’s radio essay Pour en finir avec le jugement de Dieu and Sonic Voyage of Resistance for Radio Art Zone.

Pastille sonore composée, interprétée et enregistrée par Sylvia Hinz suite à sa journée passée à La Maison Jaune, magasin de décoration, d'art de la table et parfumerie.

Pastille 25 : Casa Amarilla, de Sylvia Hinz > La Maison Jaune, magasin de décoration et parfumerie

This release is an international compilation of 10 tracks produced exclusively by women from various horizons. This compilation was curated in support of women and the Iranian people in general. Proceeds will be redistributed to the "Collectif Femme Azadi" association, which provides material and media support for their struggle.

The journey begins with The Year of Blood by Gülce Özen Gürkan, a multi-layered dark and industrial soundscape, incorporating samples of the voice of Masih Alinejad that introduces the political nature of this release. Next, I Am an Iranian Woman by Nour Kara & Juliette Capel is a mixture between industrial, organic sounds, cello and voice, with a powerful atmosphere. The track Infinite Expansion by the duo Catenation is a dark ambient interlude before the banger Corpo in which Sara Brown lays her words on the edge-cutting production of Mad Monkey. Another duo, Flugen feat. Hura Mirshekari, proposes Mashaal, an introspection tack with deep vocals and rhythmics : The message of Mashaal is that the torch can never be turned off; wherever we are, we hold the roots of our lands and it is our duty to keep the fire burning. To wake you up from this dream comes Constructor, a breakbeat roller by Lyschen Finkorum, developing a great work on evolving patterns. Afterward, F9THF brings us Mina, on which she used her voice and complex polyrhythms in a delightful and glitchy combination. The next track, suyumuz özelleştiriliyor by pyruvicac.id, sounds like a long and gloomy ritual, with mutating vocal pads, tabla drums and acid synths. The penultimate track, Hundestern Klein produced by Marka Tamea, is a downtempo acid banger, containing crazy-sounding vocals by Rasputoin. Finally, The Chase, a mental techno roller by SDYK, closes this compilation.

Catenation - #Iran1

Soprano, Felicia Chen
electronics, Bahar Royaee

Kitchen, is the result of a close collaboration with vocalist Felicia Chen.

Based on a well-known lullaby from northwest Iran, the composer deconstructs and reconstructs the folktune, moving through exploration of phonemes derived from the text, resonance space, vowel filters, and speed of airflow. Royaee supplements the lullaby with recorded sounds from a kitchen, which is an important place of family gathering in Iran. The composer envisions her mother sitting in her kitchen in Iran, thinking of her daughter. 
The text is derived from a poetry by Yadollah Royaee, who has a collection of poetries, all depicting various tombstones, for different people. The selected poetry was written for his best friends and the most famous female contemporary poet in Iran, Fourth Farrokhzad. Yadollah royaee is in exile.

“With every step of yours, I become divorced from the soil. One sip of the loam, and plowing is reminiscent of the horizon.

	با هر قدم تو از خاک دور میشوم،
یک جرعه خاک،
و شخم،
دلتنگ افق میشد.
