Disiniblud (Rachika Nayar & Nina Keith)

The Wonder of Disiniblud (Rachika Nayar & Nina Keith): Electronic Fantasies at Play

Soundcheck | Jun 26, 2025

When we last heard from Rachika Nayar, she was creating warped textures from her guitar and the software program called Ableton. Our introduction to Nina Keith came from her 2019 album Maranasati 19111, an eerie album of electroacoustic chamber music. After fan-girling each other’s music online, the two composer/musicians have now joined forces for a new project called Disiniblud. Their fantastical wordless conversations graze freely from post-rock, glitchy indie electronica, neo-classical, and pop – “all resulting in a work that suggests sweeping transformation can come from embracing old wounds with childlike wonder”, (album liner notes on Bandcamp.) Disiniblud plays new music from their 2025 self-titled debut album, in-studio.

Set list: 1. Give-upping 2. Serpentine 3. Whole 30 Fight Club
