Misha Faulty

"The distinctive aesthetic of Faulty's debut album - of visceral noise performance, crossed with cinematic body horror - explores her experience with disability ... there's also evidence of a steely sense of control here: the twisting, cutting and splicing of sound feels like a way of reclaiming agency in the face of a world unfit for need."

Misha Faulty graduated from Goldsmiths University in 2017 and has performed in Vienna, Zagreb and London. their music digs into abysses of dirt that collapse and reform, sweaty and jittering, spasming in multiple directions at once.  Their influences include S280F, Kavari, Klein, and M.E.S.H.

Misha Faulty’s Incoherent Imaging, her first with Multibody Records, curdles the moment the opening track gets underway. A close-up image of a face as it begins to crack, her throat caught as she breaks down into heaving sobs and her body burns in panic. The wailing and granular processing here conjure an atmosphere bleeding with discomfort. Many of the sounds in this project stew in the discomfort introduced here. The drawn out rubbery squeaks,  decimating kicks and bursts of garbled noise halt any attempts to settle. The album manifested from granular experimentation and an idea of continuous reprocessing, contorting previously used sonic material into new arrangements.
