about

Melbourne-based violinist and singer/songwriter XANI is set to embark on a one-of-a-kind project by announcing her upcoming single releases through a real-time creative session on Twitch kicking off every Sunday across the next three months.

In an attempt to completely flip the current release model on its head, XANI invites her loyal followers and supporters to join her on an exciting journey fuelled by audience interaction and improvisation to cooperatively create three new singles inspired by various themes and influences.

 “This project is all about flipping the music release model and inviting audience interaction while creating new music. By the end of June, I will have two new singles to share. What they will sound like, I have no idea!”

Through a DIY writing tactic of utilising various live loops, grooves and effects, XANI wishes to build these single ideas from the ground up and invite listeners to provide real-time feedback and suggestions in a real journey from raw concepts and collaboration to the eventual final product

 “For the month of June, I will be making new music inspired by some of my favourite EDM artists including Skrillex, Kraftwerk, Daft Punk for example. This genre of music allows me to use my live looping technology to its max, creating filtered layers of bass and pizzicato, and crooning over the top with effected vocals."

This project has been generously supported by Creative Victoria.

lyrics

You can be who you want
You can be who you want to be.

If you want to fly
If you want to float, spread your wings
You can be who you want to be.

If you want to run
If you want to go, tie your shoes
You can be who you want to be.
