A Song for Young Xenophobes: listen to the latest release by Mary Ocher

Born in Russia, raised in Tel Aviv, and now settled in Berlin, musician and artist Mary Ocher has infused her latest album with a vibrant patchwork of musical motifs.

The Moscow-born artist’s latest album, The West Against the People, draws on an eclectic range of styles, mixing Latin and African-inspired beats with ambient waves of krautrock.

The politically-charged album pulls these threads together with an overarching narrative, exploring migration, freedom and western identity in a world of growing uncertainty.

The West Against The People will be released by Klangbad on 10 March 2017.
