Album lore

Sheherazaad’s 2023 release *Mashoor*, issued by Erased Tapes, condenses its experimental and psychedelic folk impulses into a single extended track. The piece unfolds with a sparse, intimate texture that recalls the looser, improvisatory edges of American folk, filtered through a contemporary lens. The recording’s limited personnel and studio details remain elusive, but the track’s measured pacing and subtle shifts suggest a careful attention to dynamics and tone.At just one composition, *Mashoor* resists division into smaller units, inviting the listener to attend to its gradual modulations and tonal inflections. Its modest footprint in the digital ether—around 2,500 Last.fm listeners—marks it as a quiet artifact within the broader Erased Tapes canon, a signal from a niche corner of the psychedelic folk lineage.
