Azar Swan - And Blow Us A Kiss

Facts 2014 release, the second full-length album by Brooklyn two-piece Azar Swan. Formerly the core members of Religious to Damn, Zohra Atash and Joshua Strawn changed gears in 2012, turning their multi-member, organic chamber ensemble into a drum-machine-minded, electro centric duo. The shift was sparked by the realization that coordinating multiple musicians often slowed the writing and performing process, and by a mutual revived interest in electronic music and hip-hop beats, pulling influences from acts like The-Dream and These New Puritans as well as classic industrial artists such as Front Line Assembly and Coil.
