Swiss-born, Nepalese-Tibetan producer Aïsha Devi, whose label, Danse Noire, has released leftfield electronic music from the likes of IVVVO and Vaghe Stelle, presents Conscious Cunt, exploring womanhood and touching on spirituality, materialism, and societal pressure. "Kim & the Wheel of Life" is a whirling melodic vortex of melancholic, echoing synths underlaid with deep, rumbling kicks, which morphs into a vocal-centric piece. The beatless "Aurat (Tool)," Devi's second "vox tool" in a series, is an Urdu poem by Pakistani feminist Kishwar Naheed. "The Saviour on Spilled Blood" is a slow-building epic, using Devi's dark, chanting voice to accumulate energy and emotion.
“It’s an EP about sluts, awareness, death, and women in a patriarchal society… enlightenment, violence, resistance, mothers, daughters, consciousness, Guy Debord, Vedas and eternity. It's also a high-five to my grandmother who raised me and passed away early this year.” - Aïsha Devi
