ASH KOOSHA – BIUTIFUL
2016-07-04Video drop for the single, Biutiful from the album I ASH I by Ash Koosha. Born in Iran and currently living in London, Ash makes the kind of “mind-bending electronic music” (Pitchfork), which has had the cognoscenti buzzing for months.
Working mainly with his own field recordings, treating each sampled source as a physical object, Koosha squeezes, stretches, distorts and moulds units of sound before using a background in classical music – both Persian and Western – gleaned from his time at the Tehran Conservatory of Music to structure and shape the result into affecting, original and often beautiful movements – a process he calls “finding geometry in sounds.”
