idiiom - Neural Network (2026) [Hi-Res]

“Neural Network” is idiiom’s first solo album, and it stands proudly alongside the works of pioneering electronic vocal artists such as Laurie Anderson. Each track is an improvisation, relying solely on her voice, which she manipulates through effects to create intricate loops and layered vocalisations. Much like Anderson, idiiom transforms the human voice into a multifaceted instrument—one that channels emotion, innovation and narrative in equal measure.

As we journey through life, we encounter a boundless range of emotions, each adding meaning and depth to our humanity. Some feelings are cherished, while others—like grief—are more difficult to bear. The song “Real Sad” was born from a moment of profound sorrow and emotional honesty. On that late spring evening, after the loss of my brother, I surrendered to the rawness of my feelings, allowing the music to serve as a vessel for authentic expression. The track captures a profound emotional state, echoing spontaneity and vulnerability. Throughout the album maintains an immediacy and authenticity akin to the groundbreaking practices of electronic vocal innovators.

All sounds and lyrics were improvised, with no composition or editing beforehand or afterwards, except for the final mixing and mastering by Michel Mazza (OdNu).
