Maryam Sirvan - Songs of an Empty Room (2019)

“Songs of an Empty Room” the second solo album of Tbilisi-based Iranian sound artist and producer “Maryam Sirvan” who is also one half of electronic duo “NUM” is a static inner journey into infinity, a story of a secluded room on a dull, grey summer evening.

The whole album delves into the concept of detachment from outer world and seeking tranquility in an imaginary, non-existent inner space. A crave for otherworldly existence and exploration for a personal perception beyond time and space in a hallucinating way.

The album is an exploration through sonic territories employing limited acoustic sources, obsessively only electric guitar and voice. It offers textural structures using digital manipulation and sampling creating personal atmospheres and soundscapes.
