Princess Diana of Wales

Members: Laila Sakini
Like A Gun
Following work with poet Lucy Van (Figures, Purely Physical 2017) and a string of highly alluring sound parcels via her Careful podcast series, the Melbourne-London based producer, DJ, curator, and performer presents two solo pieces of ambience and deftly arranged instrument-voice interplay.  A space is found within a mix of DIY instrumentation, science fiction rumination and the melancholic exotica of possible pasts.

Paloma
*In process of stocking. Limited edition of 500 copies.* Laila Sakini's new album 'Paloma' arrives via Modern Love and is her most striking and ambiguous to date - a pointed and timely meditation on hope and hierarchies that riffs on Zbigniew Preisner's magical "The Double Life of Veronique" score and enduring outsider music tome "The Langley Schools Music Project".
