From Emna Mâaref's fusion of traditional Oud with electronic textures, to Virus2020's boundaryless soundscapes blending acoustic and electronic elements, Inlandquake #TN introduces listeners to an exhilarating mix of genres and styles. Artists like Nvmb Stupor, Sarla, and Blue Rain also bring their own experimental touch, adding depth to the album's ever-shifting sound palette. Erratic Boulders, a collective founded by Dion Monti and Rim Harrabi, aims to provide a platform for collaboration and innovation, bringing together artists, curators, and promoters from Tunisia, Europe, and beyond. The compilation also comes ahead of a release tour across Europe, with live performances in Switzerland and Paris featuring some of the album's standout artists. These performances will bring the unique energy of Tunisian experimental music to a wider audience, offering a glimpse into the underground sounds that have long been bubbling below the surface.
