Detailing a journey through her turntable experiments with ensembles, to solo, duos, trios and orchestras, Mariam will discuss her career and where her creative practice is now. She will reflect on the new piece, The Scholar's Record, premiered at Donaueschingen on 17/10/25, and on her new turntable compositional techniques and methodologies.

Mariam Rezaei is a multi-award-winning composer, turntablist and performer working across experimental new music, free improvisation, mutant club music and hip-hop. Described by The Wire as “one of the most technically adept and creatively daring artists to use the turntable as a musical instrument,” Rezaei uses a digital vinyl system, allowing her to manipulate an expansive range of samples in real time using classic turntablist skills and her own innovative techniques. The Anglo-Iranian virtuoso’s latest solo release, FRACTURED (Heat Crimes), has been praised by The Wire, Uncut and Bandcamp Daily, and was one of The Quietus’ cassette releases of 2024. Rezaei is a member of the international free music supergroup The Sleep of Reason Produces Monsters and the pioneering Turntable Trio with Evicshen and Maria Chávez. Her co-composition with Matthew Shlomowitz, 6 Scenes for Turntable and Orchestra, was premiered at IMD Darmstadt 2023. Other collaborators include Jennifer Walshe, Kobe Van Cauwenberghe, Edward George, Pat Thomas, Farida Amadou, Valentina Magaletti, Lasse Marhaug and Okkyung Lee.
