I wish I could know from where this was recorded

@saintabdullah: could you share a translation of the words spoken in this track and the context in which it was recorded or sampled?

Saint Abdullah––the sound project by NYC-based, Iranian-Canadian brothers Mohammed and Mehdi––returns with 'Mechanical Flirtations', their first release on Helsinki’s True Aether. Revered for their unique blend of auditory storytelling, weaponized sonic alchemy and deeply moving, vivid personal accounts of their Iranian roots and life in our complex current moment, the duo build on their past albums on PTP and Boomarm Nation. 

Featuring John Butcher, Travis Laplante and Sahba Sizdahki 

Album art: 'On The Edge of The Spring' by Parham Ghalamdar.

Inspired by the timeworn streets of Istanbul, rooted in contravening punk culture; Fu.ku collects breakbeat, electro, ghettotech & UK garage records and drops them in his energetic, expressionist & stinging sets

Tehran Night #367 Fu.Ku

poison (prod. Ithaka)

“A Life Divine” radiates the spirit of UK indie, weaving jangly, heavy guitars with haunting, echo-laden vocals that drift through every line. This track merges shimmering guitar textures reminiscent of classic British indie with lush, atmospheric depth. The ethereal echo on the vocals creates a dreamy ambiance, inviting listeners into a world where introspection, longing, and creativity collide. Grounded in the indie ethos of authenticity and emotional openness, “A Life Divine” is both an anthem for dreamers and a raw exploration of modern existence—perfect for late-night drives or reflective moments.

A guitar-driven indie track inspired by Manchester’s Madchester scene and Britpop icons like Oasis, Stone Roses, and Blur. Zepher brings together jangly riffs and nostalgic melodies—perfect for fans of classic UK indie! #britpop
