without SHAPE without FORM With Angel Bat Dawid · With Deep K Kailey Watch on YouTube ↗

With Angel Bat Dawid, in conversation with Deep K Kailey, recorded ahead of their TOTAL RESPONSE performance in New York — on music, memory and endurance.

How do we find true freedom when we are simply too tired to carry the weight of our own thoughts? Ahead of their Total Response performance in New York, composer and multi-instrumentalist Angel Bat Dawid and artist Nirbhai (nep) Singh Sidhu join Deep for an unfiltered exploration of music, memory and endurance.

Angel shares nostalgic reflections on her childhood parlour room and how watching Amadeus sparked a hidden, lifelong obsession with classical music. They discuss art and music as essential portals that allow us to explore beyond.

Shifting to the battlefield of the mind, Angel opens up with raw honesty about the physical and emotional exhaustion of carrying heavy burdens, opening the door for Deep to share a transformative perspective on how to access genuine inner freedom. They close on the transformative power of repetition and discipline, proving that rigorous practice is not a constraint but the ultimate tool for personal growth and self-mastery.

Angel Bat Dawid is a Chicago-based composer, clarinetist, singer and educator whose radical, genre-defying work interacts deeply with memory, spirituality and the rich lineage of the Black jazz avant-garde.
