Sasha Smirnova's latest single 'Of My Mind' serves as a haunting prelude to her forthcoming album 'Gone Stray', which explores themes of homesickness and cultural memory. The track stands out for its unique sound, wholly crafted from her layered vocal techniques, embodying an organic and spontaneous recording process. Smirnova's work is enriched by elements of Belarusian folk music, which unintentionally surfaced during its creation, highlighting her deep emotional connection to her roots. Accompanying the single is a video directed by Michelle Roginsky, which visually represents the themes of nostalgia and shared memory through a doppelganger narrative.
I recorded this track in one go, without even planning to make a track. It wasn't intentional, but a natural reflection of a homesickness that's hard to name.
Dacha is a universal place in the post-soviet mind... Our film follows Sasha's character as she emerges from the void as a doppelganger...
