Berlin based, Iranian born artist Mentrix released her debut album earlier this year. As the video made to accompany 'Walk' demonstrated, her art is about both the visual and the musical. Her music stems from Sufism and traditional middle eastern percussion as much as european industrial noise, and there's a kind of brooding intent that is shown best by 'Walk' and it's accompanying video. Had the pandemic not happened, she would undoubtably have toured and her album might have received wider recognition. It is to be hoped that we hear more from her in 2021.
