Divīne by Metttani

Divīne is a journey through the ambivalent manifestations of the sacred. An industrial North African bass trip into the dark ceremonies of resurrection. It blows shade over the pagan/religious duality, through which mysticism can blossom, and questions the entanglement between animist rituals and transcendent ceremonies.

It is the first part of a triptych in which Mettani, founder of the Arabstazy platform, explores some of the few rarest moments of witnessable humanity. After Divīne's opening syncretism between dogma and superstitions, Mōthers will follow-up on sexual and gender singularities, before closing with Sukūn drawing a poetical yet brutal ode to sentimental obscurantism.
