In the space between sound art and music, her moody, atmospheric explorations incorporate dirty machine-like rhythms and bass-heavy pulsations, contrasted with glassy cascades and occasional sweet slippery vocals. Deconstructed vocals, digital debris, beats, shifting aural textures and atmospheres.
