HYENA: Healing Your Esoteric Needs Astrally
♡♡♫ a zine that is a ritual that is a cassette that is a dream ♫♡♡

HYENA No.1 investigates obsession as a form of devotion. Inspired by Hilma Af Klint’s weekly seance group, The Five, the issue takes the form of an automatic writing ritual.

Through a carefully curated mix by MOISTURE and a seance composed by Mai Ivfjäll and Anna Jansson (alumni of Hekseskolen), the listener-writer is guided through a leavening of self that attunes the psyche to the collective unconscious.

Prior to the release of the cassette, the automatic writing ritual was performed in kitchens, on trains, in hospital rooms, as a group, and in isolation. A poem written during one of the sessions is included with the cassette.

On 24 April 2020 HYENA: Obsessions was broadcast as a live seance on Retreat Radio. A specially re-edited version of the mix is available here: soundcloud.com/retreatradio/hyena-obsessions

about

MOISTURE Malmö, Sweden

"The aesthetics of the lo-fi ethos in current music stems from nostalgia, which itself stems from
the more sober insight that we are living at the tail-end of history. A steady trend of poor recording quality seems a more obvious indicator of cultural capital rather than monetary, in a technological era where the idea of a perfect sound in music recording has run its course."

- Simon Eliasson
