I made it my project in the last couple of years, to rethink the existing aesthetical hierarchies in relation to contemporary geopolitical conditions and cultural soft-power in my listening practice. As a consequence, I have been trying to avoid listening to western music and try to make new connections and friendships in scenes outside of the West. So this playlist is a bunch of songs that I am recently obsessed with, that my friends got me onto. There are maybe more tracks from Asian electronic music scenes, but along with them are also some noise and art music that I have been engaged with that streaming algorithm gods brought me to.
