Faten Kanaan

Faten Kanaan is a solo electronic artist from Walsrode whose work sits within minimalism and modern classical, with links to experimental, ambient and contemporary classical music. She uses vintage synthesizers to construct slowly unfolding pieces that draw on cinematic forms, including sweeping landscapes, quiet love stories and the patterned tension associated with 1970s horror film scores.

Her music places emphasis on a human quality within electronic composition, exploring the relationship between people, nature and machines. Recurring themes include the passage and drifting of time, dystopian grit, and a bittersweet but hopeful sense of nostalgia.
