Berlin-based Peruvian producer and activist Sofia Kourtesis returns with a brilliant EP on Ninja Tune.
The EP explores the evolving journey of womanhood - beginning in solitude, transitioning into the discovery of sisterhood and family, and culminating in empowerment. It embraces sensuality, connection, and a profound relationship
with nature, carrying a message of introspection and hope.
Features an incredible collaboration with friend and fellow artist Dan Snaith (Daphni).
When she began work on her debut album, ‘Madres’, Kourtesis was seemingly unstoppable. A string of rapturously received EPs and singles made her one of the fastest rising stars in the electronic world and beyond.
She has already graced the cover of Mixmag, released a brilliantly energetic and moving Resident Advisor RA Session, appeared on End Of Year lists from the likes of The New York Times, Pitchfork and DJ Mag and played instant sell-out early shows at London’s IAH and Manchester’s YES, as well as standout performances at Glastonbury, Green Man, Wide Awake and Primavera, plus tours supporting Caribou and Bicep.
Sofia is championed amongst the biggest names in electronic music. Her notable followers include Floating Points, Caribou, Rüfüs Du Sol, Flume, JUNGLE, Claptone, Adam Port and &ME of Keinemusik, Pete Tong, KiNK, LP Giobbi, DJ Tennis and more.
For fans of Four Tet, Mount Kimbie, Daphni, Logic1000, TSHA, Joy Orbison, HAAi, Jacques Greene.
“Music that shimmers with a celebratory yet poignant mood, with tacit acknowledgement of the brief, finite beauty of life.” - The Times
“An uplifting experience” - The Guardian
“Her deceptively simple music wraps itself around you like a hug.” - Sunday Times
