On her own New Eden Records – release, linked story chapter & video create gradually developing fantasy world.
Australian-Iranian producer/DJ/fantasy author Naz drops her third multimedia-linked release on her New Eden Records ,‘Night Rider’ feat.88Birds, out now.
Her unique creative approach is fuelled by fantasy fiction and gaming;‘Music has always created fantasy worlds in my head. So with every New Eden Records release, we [Naz & her co-authorJohn Carnes] write a full chapter of the story it tells,a music video clip illustrates each chapteras the book grows…so the developing story line is fully immersive.’
Naz’swift success is real enough–in under a year, this still-emerging artist was playing Drumsheds,BrooklynMirage, The Gorge, Piknic Electronik,Creamfields…supporting Tale OfUs and playing herdebut sell-out headliner in Sydney Australia, along with releasing on Anjunabeats, Enhanced,and starting her own label.
‘Night Rider’feat. 88 Birds:a steady driving house beat with throbbing bass and hissing hi-hats disrupted by sudden jangling piano phrases showcases 88 Birds’soaring,sweetbut edgy vocals–‘I need everything set free’–her voice also riding the breakdown’s solemn synth chords, building to asatisfying drop. Danceable, and readable, as only Naz can make it.
Naz:‘Night Rider’was a labour of love and frustration and is now one of my favourite tracks. When I sent the instrumental to 88 Birds,she delivered such a beautiful vocalI felt there was something missing in the music. I wanted her powerful vocals and lyrics to shine and have the space they deserved.It took over a year but then one day I revisited it after a break,the magic clicked and here we are! ’Here in Naz’ fantasy world, and it’s well worth the trip.
The accompanying chapter/ developing story is all available on the New Eden Records website.
Video clips accompanying the tracks are available on YouTube.
Naz ‘Night Rider’ feat. 88Birds is out now on her New Eden Records imprint.
