Next up in the Shape+ series is Dania. “This mix is a collection of organic sounds, guitar, violin, cello and especially voice. I’ve included a few demos I’ve been working on with just guitar and voice with my friend Ilyas Ahmed which will be released on Geographic North in October. Here you will also hear some music from Ulla and Perila who just released an album on my label Paralaxe Editions. They used the floor as a studio to create some beautiful ambient jazz. Also, some forthcoming by composer Flora Yin Wong which will come out next year. All in all, some gentle but visceral sounds. Some other reverby bells, and music for tranquil times.” An architect of textured, neo-ambient soundscapes, Dania explores both sound and identity, focusing specifically on how the latter has fractured in a post-colonial world. Born in Baghdad, raised in Tasmania and now based in Barcelona, she moves between cultures and continents, her amorphous creative vision directly tied to her transient existence. The founder of experimental platform Paralaxe Editions, Dania divides her time between Spain and the remote corners of Australia, where she works as an emergency doctor. Dania is an artist of the SHAPE+ platform for innovative music and interdisciplinary art, co-funded by the European Union and Pro Helvetia.
