Yara Asmar - everyone I love is sleeping and I love them so so much (2025) [Hi-Res]

Yara Asmar's new album, "everyone I love is sleeping and I love them so so much," is a deeply personal collection of sound sketches created at the intersection of two worlds: the quiet town of Alfred, NY, and the bustling city of Beirut. The work reflects a transitional period in the artist's life as she adapts to a new continent. The album is built on experiments with homemade music boxes, deconstructed toy pianos, and a personal archive of family audio recordings. Asmar explores the sonic properties of metal, creating fragile, surreal, and timeless compositions. This record is not about nostalgia for the past, but an attempt to capture the "horrifying present" through sound, exploring themes of memory, loss, and grief. It is an invitation for the listener to take refuge from the outside world and, in the artist's own words, to "sit inside the sound" with her.
