Xicada (Ilyse Krivel), wavering in a universe between darkness and transcendence, pursues imagined worlds, altered-states, rhythmic and textural play through electronics. Dark heavy beats, whispered vocals concerning the nature of perception, and manipulated samples and field recordings float in and out creating a space that drifts across dimensions. Fornerly known as eternalrealworld, Krivel has releases on Halocline Trance (Eternal Mystery Universal Intelligence, digital and cassette, April 2022), Foxy Digitalis ( Tikkun Slam, digital release, 2021), Aural Tethers (Reflections, digital and cassette, 2019) as well as several digital self-releases.
