about

"Deku Tree" is a walk. It is the "fool/hero/monk"'s journey through capitalism, struggle, turmoil, loss towards presence and peace brought on by the support of friends and lovers and wise ones and nature. It's the movement from confusion and urgency toward an appreciation and gratitude for life, only for the journey to start again.

Beast Nest is the primary recording project of artist Sharmi Basu, an Oakland born and based South Asian woman of color creating experimental music as a means of decolonizing musical language. She attempts to catalyze a political, yet ethereal aesthetic by combining her anti-colonial and anti-imperialist politics with a commitment to spirituality within the arts. Beast Nest utilizes an unwavering depression and restrained horror to channel left-eyed spirits.
