While her music is typically in English, she released her first Persian-language song "Bebin" in early 2017 in protest of Executive Order 13769. Her debut album, ISON, was released on 26 April 2017 via her record label, Twisted Elegance.[1] Life and careerEarly lifeSevda Alizadeh was born on 1 September 1987 in Tehran, Iran.[1] She moved with her family to the Netherlands at the age of five. At 16, she left home after obtaining a basketball scholarship, eventually playing on the Dutch national basketball team. She went to university, graduating with a master's degree in communications.[2] Sevdaliza is fluent in Persian, Dutch, English, French, and Portuguese.[3] 2013–present: The Suspended Kid, Children of Silk and ISONIn March 2014, Sevdaliza released her single "Clear Air" along with a music video.[4][5][6] It was later followed by "Sirens of the Caspian" and "Backseat Love".[7][10] In January 2015, her extended play (EP), The Suspended Kid, was issued, which she had worked on for over a year and half. The title of the EP is about how people responded to Sevdaliza in social situations, saying "I realized that those things that deflect me from social situations—not getting along with your coach or your boss or whatever—it made me realize I had to choose a different path."[2] The Suspended Kid was produced by Sevdaliza and Rotterdam-based producer and frequent collaborator, Mucky. In September, a music video for the last remaining track on the EP, the industrial R&B[2] "That Other Girl", was released.[13] In June, she released "Marilyn Monroe", which served as the lead single from her second EP, Children of Silk. The song has been characterized as trip hop[2] and was accompanied by a music video which was released in March 2016.[8] Children of Silk was released in November. Sevdaliza cited textures such as skin, glass, and silk as the main inspiration behind the EP.[9] In May, Sevdaliza released a short film titled The Formula,[10] which tells the story of how "the pain of losing an unborn child destroyed balance in marriage and leads to tragedy."[11] Directed by Emmanuel Adjei, the short film features three songs by Sevdaliza, "The Formula", "The Language of Limbo" and "Mad Woman";[12] the latter was issued as a single the following year in October.[20] A new single titled "Time" was released in the same month.[21] In the following month, another single titled "Human" was released along with a music video.[22][23] "Human", "Marilyn Monroe" and "The Language of Limbo" would later be included on Sevdaliza's debut studio album, ISON .[13] In January 2017, Sevdaliza released her first Persian-language song, "Bebin",[14] in response to Executive Order 13769. She stated, "In protest of the inhumane political climate, I could not rest my head in privilege. I wrote 'Bebin' in Farsi, to solidify. I stand strong with love. In this case I choose to avoid mainstream media, because I have no interest in part taking in a victimized concept. Take this message without lights, camera, action. I am solely a messenger. In the brain of love, there is no place for racism nor bigotry."[15] In February, a music video was released for "Amandine Insensible", which showcases the limited roles women are expected to fill in modern culture. Sevdaliza said, "The story of Amandine explores the concept of 'identity' in a contemporary world that is rapidly changing due to the disappearance of 'boundaries'. Amandine is everything you want her to be. An extreme extraction of average life, representing a world where we have become so universal all feelings have disappeared. Paradoxically, this makes you feel uncomfortable. Her life takes place in an infinite white space, composed with minimal objects that represent different facets of the cycle of daily life."[27] In April, "Hero" was released as the second single from her debut studio album, ISON.[28] The album was released in April 2017, and is named after Comet ISON, a sungrazing comet.[3] {{Citation needed span|text=In January 2018, Sevdaliza released a new track "Soul Syncable" and it was released on the day of the super blue moon.

Musical style and influencesSevdaliza's music incorporates electronic,[16] alternative R&B,[17] trip hop,[17] experimental pop,[13] and avant-pop.[3] Critics have likened her music to the likes of FKA Twigs, the trip hop of Portishead with string arrangements recalling Siouxsie and the Banshees circa "Dazzle" and Homogenic-era Björk.[18] According to Sevdaliza, "I think my sound would mostly be described as pure and raw. I'm not necessarily drawn to a genre, but to a process, or towards a certain mood like melancholy. The interesting thing is that the music my music gets compared to is not necessarily music I've listened to, which makes it super interesting. I was performing once, and a conservatory professor came to me after the show, saying that he could really hear that I draw inspiration from old Persian singers. I asked him, "Wow, that's really interesting. How do you hear that?," and he said because I use certain semitones and microtones when I sing. But I've never had a singing lesson in my life, and I've never listened to Persian music in my life! It's really interesting to me that some things just come to you unconsciously like that. It's like you have this brain and it's unconsciously and consciously registering everything and in combination with your DNA it just becomes... something."[19] Sevdaliza's music is inspired by ideas of womanhood, identity, and motherhood.[20] ArtistryMusic videosSince the release of her song "DelftsBlauw" in 2012, each of her singles have an accompanying video. Her album, ISON, is a visual album and has a video that is 1 hour, 6 minutes, and 28 seconds long. Unlike similar visual albums, the film is abstract and meant to be viewed in one sitting, as it subtly changes like a "moving painting".[17] Her general goal with her music videos is to "make it vulnerable and more than human at the same time."[19] "Human"Sevdaliza appears to be a satyr and an erotic dancer performing in a semi-abandoned large building with classical detailing in front of an audience sitting on a mezzanine. The audience consists of only men, who are clearly wealthy, being served food and receiving this seemingly private and exclusive performance. The time and place that this is occurring remains ambiguous, mostly because of the mysteriousness of Sevdaliza's semi-mythological character, who is dancing on dirt that has been plowed as in preparation for an animal race. Additionally, her outfit recalls that of Debra Paget in the 1959 film The Indian Tomb, a nod to old Hollywood nostalgia and popular roles women play catering to male sexual desire.[21] The audience members sweat and watch cautiously, as if scared of her. Her video on YouTube is accompanied by the quote, 'the basic human need to be watched was once satisfied by god'. There is an official rendition of the song in Portuguese. The video for Human was directed by Emmanuel Adjei. "Amandine Insensible"Sevdaliza performs several archetypal figures of women in contemporary society. These archetypes are all solo and set against a bright white background, with watermarks and are meant to represent the limited roles accessible to women. As a commentary on the commercialization of everyday life, Sevdaliza sold clips from the music video to [https://www.shutterstock.com/video/clip-23881564-stock-footage-professional-woman-call-center-operator-business.html?src=same_model/23881801:0/3p Shutterstock]. There is the "confident, powerful woman active wear", "professional woman operator call center business", "glamorous sensual woman in silk garment", "confidant ethnic woman leather suit umbrella", and "glamourous woman wow white fur piano". Sezdaliza says that "The accessibility of information and matter has created a new universal language, in which commercial brands play a key role."[22] Album artISONThe album art for ISON features a hyper-realistic bust of Sevdaliza herself, barely superimposed and upside down over a mannequin copy that appears to be covered with fresh bright red paint. The hair that is hanging upside down, drapes over the shoulder of the bright red bust. Both appear to be sweaty or wet. The silicone sculpture is by sculptor Sarah Sitkin. Stikin says "The idea is based around Sevdaliza being the mother to herself and her past lives. It carries her vulnerability stoically. Her features distorted, some omitted, some emphasized. A new form is repeated through her 16 children (number of songs) surrounding her."[23] DiscographyStudio albums
