MICHA VOLDERS & MIET WARLOP PRESENT ‘ICCHĀ’.
Balancing experimental electronica, angular wave and powerful chants, ‘ICCHĀ’ is a frenzied sonic fusion between Belgium and Bangladesh. Stemming from their monumental performance ‘Chant For Hope’ (2023), which showcased native artists from Dhaka, ‘ICCHĀ’ revolves around the musical cadence and rich heritage of the Bengali language. A powerful and uncompromising journey, ‘ICCHĀ’ offers a captivating soundworld with angular drumming and vocals that oscillate in mantra-like repetitions. The album features the performances of slam poet Shayer Noor, the energetic Muhammad Shanto, and the Chittagonian-spirited Tanny Das Gupta as protagonists,
navigating the vibrant frenzy of Dhaka.
