On January 21st, 2019, Iris van Herpen presented her latest Haute Couture collection, titled Shift Souls at Palais des Beaux-Arts in Paris.
The collection was inspired by early examples of celestial cartography and its representations of mythological and astrological chimera, Van Herpen was particularly taken with «Harmonia Macrocosmica,» a star atlas by the German-Dutch cartographer Andreas Cellarius, published in 1600.
With the advances in DNA engineering and the first successful creations of human/anima hybrids called Cybrids, the mythological dreams of Humankind since the dawn of civilization are shifting to the canvas of science. While the scientific and ethical implications of Cybrids are still unclear, this collection expresses the fact that this reality is upon us.
«For Shift Souls I looked at the evolution of the human shape, its idealization through time and the hybridization of the female forms within mythology. Specially the imagination and the fluidity within identity change in Japanese mythology gave me the inspiration to explore the deeper meaning of identity and how immaterial and mutable it can become within the current coalescence of our digital bodies” — Iris van Herpen

Be Svendsen is the newest member to add his culturally rich productions to the Label of Earthly Delights. Offering us a beautiful 3 track journey in ‘Nabia’ EP. With recently taking over the charts with the famed remix of NU «Man o to» on Crosstown Rebels and his Rebellion debut, this EP is a blissful continuation of his signature sound and works. With support from the industry titans, such as Damian Lazarus and Lee Burridge, Be Svendsen is becoming a household name for the fans of the genre. Which genre? Well in the words of the artist himself… “…instead of limiting the genre to a certain style of chants, instrumentation or area, I would prefer to just call it Organic.”
His tonal creativities begin with ‘Decoy’, a journey of nomadic tendencies where delayed melodic riffs hover mythically over a measured kick and resonant bass. Drawing inspiration from Middle Eastern musical traditions, Be Svendsen injects moments of discord and resolve into this transcendent blend of music and nature.
Title track ‘Nabia’ is another original and the second in this flavored adventure. After developing an underlying percussion line brimming with organic tones, he inserts loose melodic phrases. The track opens up your mind to dream of the desert, open skies and freedom to dance inside
