Azu Tiwaline and Shinigami San curate 23-track compilation of Tunisian electronic music

Producers Azu Tiwaline and Shinigami San have curated a new 23-track compilation of Tunisian electronic music.

It comes as part of New York ambient label Air Texture’s ‘Place: series, with ‘Place: Tunisia’ being released on March 24.

All of the tracks are produced by Tunisian artists, including contributions from Tiwaline and San themselves, with styles ranging from broken beat, to experimental and ambient, with the pair tapping into a variety of different artists – from score composers to electronic music producers.

In a statement about the upcoming compilation, Air Texture wrote: “As old veterans of electronic deep explorations [Tiwaline and San] are driven by the aim to provide a general view and an état des lieux of the electronic microcosm of this scene supporting its different directions and creative aspects.

“This compilation is an invitation to have a deep dig into electronic Tunisia,” it continued.

“The artists curated to participate represent different backgrounds and musical perspectives. From score composers to established producers, crossing the path of more experimental ones the curators offer a large view of the ensemble of the different electronic approaches in Tunisia.

‘Place: Tunisia’ will be Air Texture’s eighth compilation in the ‘Place:’ series, with the other locations so far being represented being Colombia, Ecuador, Georgia, Nairobi, The Netherlands, Vancouver and France.

For each release in the series, all proceeds are donated to a local environmental organisation, with the group chosen for ‘Place: Tunisia’ being La Ruche, which is an organisation based in Tozeur, South Tunisia.
