Maverick of the musical scene, Loan has been running several projects lately in both music, dance and video.
She is now launching a brand new global artistic project entitled " in Space Time" ; including an album and a short film presented as "quagma".
Loan takes us for a spin in a time space where hers electro sounds merge with the pest flow of Grime, the energy of Krump and the influences of Bass music.
Clear and deep basses define a vast space, where the dark and heavy atmosphere is punctuated by cinematic accents.
Bridge between the real and the unreal, the album draws its musical identity to confines of science fiction, a kind of waking dream guided by a stubborn groove. Loan's music finds its essence in the elements that surround the urban environment and mysterious where every corner reveals a singular musicality, orchestrated sensitivity.
On the sole musical aspect, for her second album, Loan dares inviting hotshots of the hip hop/ grime scene to experiment her "electro hip-hop dub futurist with voodoo incursions" musical world :
- Juice Aleem as one of the mainstay MCs of the hip-hop / grime UK scene is signed on Big Dada (Nnja Tune) and also part of a band called New Flesh.
- Bang On!, straight out of Liverpool, the young MC of the Big Dada family is one of those who can set crowds on fire. With impressive silver-tongued performances, he shows his ability to use metaphors and cynical humor, which make rap sound new again.
- Earl Blaize and Hprizm from Antipop Consortium.
Loan also thought of including young talented composers such as Guillaume Perret, rising star of the jazz scene and Clozee, a young producer who has already made successful collaborations with hip hop dancers and numerous remixes of great electro producers (winner 2013 Glitch Hop Awards).
As she carries on her groundbreaking artistic experiments, Loan pulls it off by inviting artists that are dear to her. Indeed their commitment is a token of their true gratitude.
For sure the production will be daring and explosive! As always achieved with the help of Otisto23 who's producer and director on numerous recordings (Laurent de Wilde, Guillaume Perret and the Electric Epic, Laurent Robin, Gael Horellou, Cosmic Connection, NHX, K'ptn Planet, Mekanik Kantatik, Under kontrol, Abraxxxas, Sam Karpienia, Dandy Freaks, Morgan St Louis ...) also abroad (Ti'Fock, Arambol Experience, Lo Griyo, Zong, Hos Ayas...), including the first release of Loan (her album "Grigri Breakers").
For the past 10 years an agitator of the IOT record label, and one of the rare female French producer, Loan is now about to release her album entitled "In Space Time". There will be a silkscreened limited edition collector LP and a digital version both released on the 6th may 2015 on IOT records label.
