Azu Tiwaline (FR)

2024

Azu Tiwaline is a producer inspired by the need to explore her origins, rooted in the Sahara. Her sound is a mix of the organic and the raw, vibrations from the spaces of the desert where entrancing music resonates and ecstatic rituals are commonplace.

Nothing happens overnight. Behind every emergence, there’s years of work, thought and preparation – both intentional and unconscious – that’s gone unseen.
So the past year might have been a ‘breakout’ year for Azu Tiwaline, but it was really built over two decades of experimentation, soul-searching – both creative and personal – and exploration. “A new name for a new spirit” as she likes to say, but with an unmistakable identity rooted in her history and ancestry.

For Insomnia Festival 2024, we’re happy to feature Azu Tiwaline as part of our programme at DRIV, with two performances. In addition to her solo live set, Azu Tiwaline will join Cinna Peyghami for a live set together on the Isbjørn stage.
