Deradoorian
Hypnotic, desert-soaked art pop that uses the voice as a rhythmic instrument. Ethereal vocal stacks meet motorik grooves for a deep, psychedelic exhale.

Angel Deradoorian is a pivotal figure in the Brooklyn-born indie-experimental scene of the late 2000s, most notably for her tenure in Dirty Projectors during their 'Bitte Orca' peak. Her solo work represents a departure from the jagged, intellectualized arrangements of her former band toward a more holistic, atmospheric sound.
Her debut, 'The Expanding Flower Planet', established her as a master of vocal layering and polyrhythmic pop. However, her 2020 album 'Find the Sun' marked a significant evolution, embracing a raw, live-in-the-room aesthetic influenced by krautrock, Can, and the spiritual jazz of Alice Coltrane. This shift toward 'desert rock' minimalism and long-form improvisation has solidified her reputation as a restless explorer of sound. Critically, she is praised for her ability to blend technical vocal prowess with a gritty, analog sensibility. Her collaborations, including Decisive Pink with Kate NV and work with Avey Tare, further illustrate her versatility across the electronic and psychedelic spectrums. She occupies a unique space between the academic rigor of art pop and the intuitive flow of psychedelic improvisation.
