My recommendation this week is the music of Iranian composer and instrumentalist Saba Alizadeh and their new album, Temple of Hope.

The album interprets the Woman Life Freedom movement through sound collage and electronica, creating a wide soundscape in turn feels expansive and claustrophobic.

It's an astounding listen. Highly recommended.
