Aïsha Devi‘s debut LP Of Matter And Spirit is, without a doubt, one of the best releases of 2015—not that we ever had much doubt. The Danse Noire label head turned our ears inside-out with her EPs, but the Houndstooth-released long-player takes it a step further. This is club music, to be sure—but it’s also spiritual, loaded with bass deeper than Naraka and chakra-cleansing mantras that are as beautiful as they are otherworldly. We want to share this record with you—in fact, we want to give it to you.
On October 30th, our favorite Leipzig hangout Institut fuer Zukunft is presenting a special Halloween showcase on Friday Oct. 30 with Aïsha Devi and NYC technomancer Pictureplane. We’re giving away 2×2 entry and—for one lucky mutant—a vinyl copy of Of Matter And Spirit. Simply click “attend” and comment ‘Aïsha Devi’ in the event. The winner will be contacted personally on Thursday Oct. 29. Get spooky!
