NODES
CULTIVATED SOUND EP RELEASE JULY 2021
‘REBELLION’
Maŕa, experimental artist and founder of the hybrid collective/label, Cultivated Sound, will be releasing a music video, and coinciding EP, for their single "Rebellion". The track, originally released in a compilation by Silent Servant and Rrose called Air Texture VII, will be re-released alongside remixes by LDY OSC and S. English.
Visually, “Rebellion” is subjective, giving the viewers an individual experience by creating their own story or relationship with
Maŕa from the outside. The film also examines Maŕa’s relationship with the viewer as represented by the camera. Her sound is
a synthesis of deep, complex atmospheres and punchy rhythms tinged with dance-floor grit. Blurring the lines between
ambient, experimental music, and deep bass rhythm, Maŕa’s expertise in sound now has a graphic landscape in the form of
her own haunting, virtual oasis.
