Azu Tiwaline – Resident Advisor podcast #906 2023-10-16

“Back in the day, drums were used as signals for festivities and war because their sounds travelled the furthest. Azu Tiwaline has long understood that. A master in the dark arts of percussion, she makes deep and profound percussive music that seems to communicate forgotten rituals from centuries past. Her sound is dense, as if pulled from the depths of the Sahara desert in Tunisia, yet still feels spacious thanks to polyrhythmic contortions and sparse, elegant melodies. Her productions largely fall into the confines of percussive techno, but unlike the genre’s springier variants, her dubby textures and psychedelic rhythms command seriousness and move with immensity. Her Livity Sound debut, the Magnetic Service EP from 2020, connected Amazigh music with dub and techno and is a masterclass in restraint and hypnosis. Her latest release, The Fifth Dream, continues to showcase her skills in balancing light and dark tones using field recordings from her home in Tunisia’s El Djerid desert, minimal ambient techno and haunting notes. Mirroring her discography, this RA Podcast features plenty of twisted rhythms, trippy techno and straightforward club cuts. Created for movement rather than hypnosis, these selections show off a different side of her drum palette—perky breaks and syncopated kicks—wrapped in her usual weighty atmospheres.”

“An exclusive 30 minute mix from Tunisian producer Azu Tiwaline, who’s just released a new remix EP, followed by an upfront 30 minute mix from Tom himself.
Born to a Berber Tunisian mother and Cambodian father, Azu Tiwaline grew up in Côte d’Ivoire before moving to France at age 14.
A few years ago, she found herself the owner of a small estate in the el-Djerid region, in the south of Tunisia. With the death of her mother in 2017, Donia made the decision to move there, to look after this “little piece of paradise that she left me.”
Azu Tiwaline has enjoyed something of a breakout year following the release of her debut album, ‘Draw Me A Silence’, in May 2020. The record was released in two parts on the French imprint I.O.T Records, fusing two halves of her heritage, and inspired by a new home in the desert.
A restless spirit inhabits Azu Tiwaline, which is born out of years spent on the road. In 2020, it was her music that took her places. Expect this mix to do the same for you, with dub polyrhythmics and techno rooted in the Sahara.
And in the final half hour of the show, Tom himself is in the mix, with his usual genre-spanning selection of tunes.”
