Iranian women have been prohibited from “singing, dancing, or performing” for over 44 years. “Facing threats to the safety of themselves and their families, to their career and reputation, female artists are forced to quit, leave Iran, or to go underground facing grave risks,” [read](https://apranikrecords.bandcamp.com/album/va-woman-life-freedom) Apranik’s statement. “Despite this, Iranian women have remained active and at the forefront of their art, pushing boundaries from Iran and different corners of the world.” ‘Woman, Life, Freedom’ is a result of this revolutionary uprising. Through this compilation, the creators [aim](https://apranikrecords.bandcamp.com/album/va-woman-life-freedom) to build and work towards a safe and nurturing environment within the arts for women and children, ‘especially electronic music.’ Apranik is a collaborative project formed in 2022 between AIDA (Iranian-born, Canadian-raised DJ and producer) and Nesa Azadikhah (Tehran-based DJ/music producer and founder of Deep House Tehran) to amplify Iranian artists. *‘Woman, Life, Freedom’ VA compilation* **Check out the full tracklist below – ** 1) SarrSew – Wronka 2) KUCHULU – Raven 3) MENTRIX – Be Mahsa Be Nika 4) Roody – Nazanid o 5) AIDA – None of Your Business 6) ROW92 – Tensionless 7) Sharona Lico – Freedom 8) Golbon Moltaji – Sepahbod Xorshid 9) Meshcut – Dream in A Dream 10) XEEN – Urn 11) Nesa Azadikhah – Sarnevesht 12) Kimia Koochakzadeh-Yazdi – Emanation **Purchase ‘Woman, Life, Freedom’ on Bandcamp [HERE](https://apranikrecords.bandcamp.com/album/va-woman-life-freedom)** **Find Apranik Records on Instagram [HERE](https://www.instagram.com/apranikrecords/)** **Artists featuring on ‘Woman, Life, Freedom’: [AIDA](https://www.instagram.com/aidarez/) | [Nesa Azadikhah](https://www.instagram.com/nesaazadikhah/) | [SarrSew](https://www.instagram.com/sarrsew/) | [KUCHULU](https://www.instagram.com/azi.maz1/) | [MENTRIX](https://www.instagram.com/mentrixmusic/) | [Roody](https://www.instagram.com/rccdy/) | [ROW92](https://www.instagram.com/r0w92/) | [Sharona Lico](https://www.instagram.com/sharona__lico/) | [Meshcut](https://www.instagram.com/meshcutttt/) | [XEEN](https://www.instagram.com/zhinardalan/) | [Kimia Koochakzadeh-Yazdi](https://www.instagram.com/kimiakoochakzadeh/)** ##### You May Also Like: ##### [Record Labels for LGBTQ+ Artists](https://www.ticketfairy.com/word/2022/06/21/record-labels-for-lgbtq-artists) ##### [5 Experimental Women Making Dark and Heavy Music](https://www.ticketfairy.com/word/2022/03/15/five-experimental-women-making-dark-and-heavy-music) ##### [Nia Archives Leads the Charge on the Jungle Movement](https://www.ticketfairy.com/word/2022/11/15/nia-archives-leads-the-charge-on-the-jungle-movement) Compartir [X](https://twitter.com/intent/tweet?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ticketfairy.com%2Fes%2Fword%2F2023%2F01%2F19%2Firanian-artists-create-an-electronic-music-compilation-in-support-of-womens-rights-movement-in-iran.md&text=Iranian+Artists+Create+an+Electronic+Music+Compilation+in+Support+of+Women%E2%80%99s+Rights+Movement+in+Iran) [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/sharer/sharer.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ticketfairy.com%2Fes%2Fword%2F2023%2F01%2F19%2Firanian-artists-create-an-electronic-music-compilation-in-support-of-womens-rights-movement-in-iran.md) [WhatsApp](https://api.whatsapp.com/send?text=Iranian+Artists+Create+an+Electronic+Music+Compilation+in+Support+of+Women%E2%80%99s+Rights+Movement+in+Iran+https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ticketfairy.com%2Fes%2Fword%2F2023%2F01%2F19%2Firanian-artists-create-an-electronic-music-compilation-in-support-of-womens-rights-movement-in-iran.md) ## Lavanya Thankappan Editor & writer at TFword.
