 ‘Push’ is Maral’s debut full-length album due on Leaving Records. The album’s sonic palette includes a collage of Iranian classical and folk samples and explores the genres of experimental electronic production, touching upon noise, punk / post-punk and dub.
 Maral is an active and acclaimed musician in the electronic underground. Her debut mixtape was widely praised and she has contributed to several compilations and Richard Russell’s Crass remix
project.
 ‘Push’ features dub legend Lee “Scratch” Perry and Penny Rimbaud of Crass.
 ‘Push’ is a confident step forward from Maral’s club and mixtape work into a powerful collection of original songs. The album bursts with an urgent psychedelic energy but its songs also grapple with
a sombre undercurrent.
 Maral says her album is intended to reflect tense US-Iranian relations: “The history of Iranian music has a lot of melancholy in it. So much of Iranian history is sad. Since ancient times, Iranians were
always fighting off invasions.”
