Curating errors with Perera Elsewhere, Fever Ray, Paula Temple and Maral

Perera Elsewhere, Fever Ray, Paula Temple and Maral discuss how the space you’re in affects the music you write, the importance of mistakes or ‘curating errors’, and the significance of technology, particularly when music production software reaches new countries.Producer, songwriter, and DJ Perera Elsewhere was born in London and is now based in Berlin. She’s played shows at iconic venues including Berghain, the Guggenheim Museum, and the Hamburg Philharmonic. She performs in extraordinary stage outfits, and her music has been described as "doom-folk".Swedish singer-songwriter and record producer Karin Dreijer, aka Fever Ray, was one half of the electronic music duo The Knife, and released their debut solo album in 2009. They love to use masks, body paint and intricate costumes when they perform live. The UK’s Paula Temple is one of Europe's most in-demand techno artists. She’s a self-proclaimed “noisician” known for making awe-inducing techno, and co-runs the label Noise Manifesto. She’s a regular on the festival circuit, having recently performed at Time Warp, DGTL, Awakenings, and Extrema Outdoor.Maral is an Iranian-American DJ and producer. She takes snippets of Iranian folk music and poetry, and repurposes them as glitchy sound experiments to bring the Persian classical repertoire to the dancefloor, something she describes as "jamming with my ancestors". Her musical creations are driven by artful experimentalism, and last year she released her third album, Ground Groove.
