This week we’ve gone all electro and with our dramatic change we are bringing back some good vibes from an area of global social unrest and unprecedented sadness. Zohara is a 26 year old artist from Tel Aviv and with her MIA inspired sound we get to revel in dancefloor dirtiness for this week’s Unsigned Sunday selection.

Adapting a technic of heavy, bass rhythms coupled with a slightly haunting backdrop Zohara adds credibility to an otherwise sad situation.
“And i know you’ve been sitting on high
Watching mistakes passing by
And you shrugged and you turned a blind eye
When they told you too many have died”
A combination of heartfelt lyricism and a decidedly party focused sound allows Zohara to transcend social norms and expectations and produce a track of utter veracity.
