Seleminga, a French-Senegalese artist, releases her latest album SI/100, which serves as a sonic exploration inspired by rococo architecture's fluidity and nature. Over two and a half years, she created a 'sound travel diary' merging her global experiences with organic sounds. The album embodies themes of juxtaposing sea and land, featuring melodies, classical instruments, and electronic elements. SI/100 offers a refreshing perspective on tranquility amidst urban chaos, inviting listeners to connect deeply with nature through music. Seleminga's unique artistic vision results in an enchanting auditory journey that transcends conventional genre boundaries.
"Creating this album felt like playing a grand game," she explains, reflecting on her instinctive approach. SI/100 was envisioned as a single expansive piece, divided into themes that explore the juxtaposition of sea and land.
The result? A stunning journey where soaring melodies and ambient textures coexist with classical instruments like violin and piano, melding with a symphonic backdrop of environmental and electronic elements.
Unlike typical narratives shaped by fear and chaos, SI/100 offers an oasis of beauty and serenity, allowing us to connect with nature abundantly and joyously.
Seleminga skillfully navigates her own love/hate relationship with urbanity, creating a soundscape that illustrates life's complexities, akin to grass erupting through cracks in concrete.
