A member of Uganda’s Nyege Nyege experimental music collective, Pö – real name Pauline Bedarida – has just released her debut solo album ‘Cociage’.
A wildly experimental collection of electronic tracks, all held together by her distinct voice, she described the record to Dazed as sounding like “fishing into a worldwide mycorrhizal-electrical network of sounds crawling in the collective consciousness and fructifying in my mouth as heavily twisted-out-of-shape yet somewhat audible edibles”.
Now, that last sentence may not have made any sense to you, but if you listen to the album (which I’m telling you that you should), it will start to become clearer. Maybe not clear, but certainly clearer.
