Hura Mirshekari and N9nE Concert | Monte le Son 2026 "Ô féminins"
The voice of Iranian women will be in the spotlight during this concert by Iranian artist Hura Mirshekari and French producer N9nE.
Médiathèque musicale de Paris – Christiane Eda-Pierre
About
On stage, the duo produces a set at the crossroads of two worlds, where Hura's strength and humanity are accompanied by the intensity and power of N9nE's electronic machines.
They will present their project Badjens, the result of their second collaboration. This second EP extends the first, Hura, by revisiting the same themes and once again setting the poems of poet Payam Sistani to music, like a faithful echo in his wake. Their music lets the voice of a Sistan woman be heard as a cry of freedom within deep, percussive, and introspective electronic music. It breaks the mold of a region of the world where women are silenced, where the traditional language is being forgotten, and finds in music an act of resistance. By singing this endangered language, Hura proclaims her freedom loud and clear, and that of all women in Iran, while embodying the living memory of the Sistani people.
On this latest EP, Hura and N9nE take a more melancholic and contemplative artistic direction than on their previous project. By slowing down the tempos and integrating textures with industrial influences, they develop a denser and more immersive universe, serving a deeper emotional narrative. Each track explores a balance between tension and minimalism, allowing a more radical and assertive sonic identity to emerge.
Our take on this event
Expect a haunting fusion where ancestral Persian poetry meets the cold precision of industrial electronic beats. This duo crafts a soundscape that feels like a daring, immersive act of liberation for the senses. It is an essential performance for anyone drawn to deep, percussive rhythms and raw emotional storytelling.
