Los Angeles’s Maral has spent the past half-decade quietly honing an approach that meshes the latest in club music contortions, a range of pulverized dub effects, and samples from her library of Iranian folk, pop and classical musics. She's collaborated with Lee "Scratch" Perry, Panda Bear and Penny Rimbaud of Crass and remixed artists like Black Dice, Anika, Automatic and more. She is currently finishing up her follow up to her critically acclaimed record 'Push' coming out Fall 2022 on Leaving Records.
"At her best, Maral is an alchemist, making disparate samples sing, like Shadow and Dilla before her." - Resident Advisor
"A display of righteous fury that's equivalent to warming your hands over a pile of burning passports" - Pitchfork
"This is one of those records that invites endless play, revealing new aspects on each spin to close listeners" - Bandcamp
