Interview Magazine | Evanora:Unlimited and Taraneh on the Power of Prayer

Before their friendship and musical collaboration materialized, Evanora:Unlimited was having dreams about Taraneh. “They were in my subconscious because I listened to their music so much,” he explained. The pair went from DMing to touring the world together, merging their frenetic styles and finding unexpected waves of inspiration, including a recording of a prayer to Mother Mary that Evanora overhead in Poland (which was eventually interpolated into their new single “Salt Water”). The pair joined last week in a cramped back room during a release party for Taraneh’s solo single to talk about their creative partnership, touring the world together, and making music in a dentist’s office.

In the newly feng shui'd space, Taraneh and I talk dreams, writing for her inner 13-year-old and her increasingly amped-up sound.

Vice | ‘Deranged, Cocky, Goblin-Thing’: daine is the Star of Future-Emo

Melbourne artist daine uses an interesting collection of words to describe herself: goblin, a villainous character, a hermit. They’re all aspects of an otherworldly figure who moved into the music world still in the depths of their teenage years, joining the “hyper-pop” movement – a contested umbrella genre – of 2019 aside the likes of perto, erica, midwxst and quinn.
