Verity Sharp presents the latest in our series of remote collaborations, bringing together avant-garde Brazilian producer Felinto and Iranian kamancheh virtuoso and sonic experimentalist Saba Alizadeh.

A key figure in S茫o Paulo鈥檚 underground scene, Felinto is both a political agitator and a boundary-pushing musician. His diverse projects 鈥� ranging from film and theatre compositions to immersive installations 鈥� blend punk, dub, ambient, noise, and free jazz. Through his music, he explores themes of gender-based violence, conflict mediation, and the Black presence in electronic music, while also reclaiming public spaces for political art.

For this remote collaboration, Felinto joins forces with Tehran-born Saba Alizadeh, whose work merges the personal and the political through electroacoustic processing, improvisation, and mixed media. A master of the kamancheh, the traditional Iranian bowed string instrument, Alizadeh also incorporates modular synthesizers, field recordings, and no-input mixers to craft richly immersive sonic landscapes.
