Badme

Badme's deviant inclinations on forming and modifying sounds, joins with her wry and twisted melodies, she is one of a kind. She explains the mind on her music as; "Always trying to catch the relentless groove on the track, and a whole weird negative/positive being united in completeness. They are very personal journeys that took places in crowded subways, nightclubs or deserted dark alleys, and they can be driven by passion, anger or excitement. It is hard to put these on words but also I'm trying to document a frenzy moment of ones mind. This is very undefinable in this whole world of never-eding learning process and knowledge."
