(layout by Deathbed Tapes)

a really fun collaboration with a Jewish musician who makes experimental music (harsh noise, dungeon synth & more) inspired by mysticism, folklore, queer/trans experience, etc. - this album is based on & titled after the foundational Kabbalistic text. Alyx is also a visual artist who makes interactive musical sculptures and instruments, so some of these are based on her actual creations! we’re both dedicated to bringing more sheydim into the world so this was a really special project. the tape will have a limited release and special editions with copper etching, available from Deathbed in January. you can also listen already on Bandcamp!
