Aziez
Biografía
AZIEZ is a Berlin-based bass project by Jannat Sohail from Pakistan, best described as composing tales of love and war. Also listed in the Alternative Power 100 Music List (2020) for Resilience and Adaptability, AZIEZ deconstructs an expansive electronic palette, exploring the infectious liberation in sound.
Born in Lahore, Pakistan, AZIEZ carries a sense of gripping urgency to explore sonic trails of socio-political underlayers and collective voices. AZIEZ also established Found Collective, which aspires to facilitate and radicalize creative exchange by and for BIPOC* artists, especially subject to migration gaps.
As a part of Femme Bass Mafia, AZIEZ learned the theatrics of the dancefloor, lacing the start to an all-encompassing end. A playful immersion within harmony and tension, AZIEZ’s sound can be hinted towards by genre-fluid breaks, electro dissonance, crescending percussions, ghettotech, and bass-heavy depths of garage.
AZIEZ also delves into performance under her alias Wooly Aziz, which is a solo, progressive soul project suitably described as “left-field electronic” by Rolling Stone and “soulful synth” with an “immersive atmosphere” by Various Small Flames. In her newly conceptualized album, Wooly Aziz expresses the emotional arc of a migrant, from the first track, called Take Off, to the last one, Landing.
