Hüma Utku presents Dracones

Hüma Utku presents Dracones

With her new album, Dracones, Istanbul sound artist Hüma Utku ventures through chaos, transformation and the intimate unknown. As medieval explorers would mark uncharted, dangerous places on maps with “hic sunt dracones” (here be dragons), Utku’s creatures represent themes of familial demonology, metamorphosis and homecoming. She also explores the human relationship to the experience of love woven layers of euphoria, alienation and consumption. Industrial pulsations rise from dark sonic corners to bloom into bright layers of experimentation, displaying shimmering guitar tones and reimagined echoes of the ancient lyre.
