60-minute live performance and soundscape by Aarti Jadu 

This set revolves around the interchange between gentle digital processing / recordings, synthesizers and organic voice. It will be mainly improvised to best suit the time, setting and feel on the day. This will be one long progressive set of 50 minutes where Aarti will draw from various folk and classical styles forming revolving motifs oscillating between solo and choruses. Her music, played in various venues across Naarm, is often described as being “down-regulating” and “trance-like” in nature.
