PREMIERE – WTNS – Aride

Independent artist WTNS announces the release of her debut EP, “How Tall Is Your Wall?” This audacious collection of self-produced songs jumps from dub, to mahraganat, garage, techno, and big beat, resulting in an experience that is as thought-provoking as it is energizing. In “How Tall Is Your Wall?” WTNS combines her unique sound with a message about the mental walls we construct to shield our perception of reality. Each track is infused with passion, curiosity and creativity that invite listeners to explore their own barriers and preconceptions, through emotional and unexpected sonic trips. The EP features collaborations, including the eco-pop anthem “Aride,” produced by Dimmi, and the high-energy track “Extension!” featuring mahraganat sensation Shobra El General. These partnerships broaden the reach of the project, set to speak to different audiences and tastes, while safeguarding WTNS’ love for sound experimentation. “I wanted to create something that makes people both think and move,” says WTNS. “This EP is about identifying the walls we set to protect our comfort, our perception of the world, and challenging the ways we find bliss in willful ignorance.” With its blend of sharp lyrics, infectious beats, and genre-defying sounds, “How Tall Is Your Wall?” is a statement of freedom and agency. WTNS’s debut EP is more than just a collection of songs; it’s a call to action, urging listeners to examine and dismantle the barriers that paralyze their understanding of and connection to reality.
