A female in the Industrial music scene who writes all her own music, and stays with it throughout the entire process, effortlessly blending together many different genres of music is a rare sight indeed. Shikhee is one of these few women, and she does her job magnificently.
She has described her music as being “electronic and dark,” and what a perfect description that is. Her music is prominent on the goth “scene,” but Shikhee has said, on more than one occasion, that her music is not made with the intention of being “goth”. This being said, sharp pangs of pain, desire, alienation, and rage are defining features of her compositions.
Born in Bangladesh, Android Lust auteur Shikhee has been exploring the cutting edge of desire, rage, and panic in her songs since her first independent release in 1998. Borrowing elements from diverse musical styles, Android Lust presents a blend of electronic rock that is provocative, engaging, and fiercely emotional. Shikhee has been making quite the name for herself in the indie electronic music community. Her music evolves with each release, showing a greater musical range than the plethora of unoriginal and copycat bands in the scene.
Shikhee continues this trend with Devour, Rise, and Take Flight (2006 Projekt Records), her new full length release since 2003’s The Dividing. Devour, Rise, and Take Flight is an unforgiving electronic rock assault carried across twelve powerful tracks. Shikhee’s commanding voice takes center stage, set against her most challenging, yet accessible songwriting to date. And in true Android Lust fashion, she saves her best hooks for her most vicious sentiments, all while taking modern electronic music even further to the edge.
