String arrangements and performances come from Raven Bush, with qanun parts performed by Syrian musician Maya Youssef. The album was mixed by Marta Salogni and mastered by Joker.

‘Collapse Phase’ single and video

KÁRYYN describes “Collapse Phase” as “the sonic threshold of confrontation and acceptance” and as the sound of obsolete structures breaking down so that “something true can exist”.

The official video for “Collapse Phase” is directed by Jenna Marsh and produced by Black Dog Films. It features choreographer Supple Nam in his first on-camera appearance in nineteen years, performing alongside dancer Sattva Thanh-Tú Nguyễn.

About KÁRYYN

KÁRYYN is a Syrian-Armenian-American singer, producer and composer whose work blends experimental electronic music, voice-driven song structures and sound art.

Her debut album “The Quanta Series” was released in March 2019 after a seven-year writing and recording period. The record, issued via her Antevasin imprint in partnership with Mute, traces a personal journey that began in 2011 after the death of two relatives in Aleppo, when she left Los Angeles for Cherry Valley in upstate New York to work in seclusion. During eighteen months there she wrote early material that would become part of the album.

“The Quanta Series” appeared on compact disc and double vinyl via Mute and collected earlier singles and digital tracks including “Aleppo”, “Today, I Read Your Life Story 11:11”, “Ever” and “Mirror Me”.

A steady stream of subsequent releases followed, including the 2024 EP “Calm Kaoss!”, the single “Ground” and the compilation “K Á R Y Y N Remixed”, which gathered reworks of pieces from her catalogue.

KÁRYYN’s collaboration history includes work with James Ford, whose production role continues on “Physics Universal Love Language (PULL)”.
