Bergsonist on Dark Entries

It’s not every day that you get a new album from New York’s Bergsonist, let alone on vinyl. But now it’s happening – May 1 her new LP called Depths is coming out on Californian label Dark Entries. A fitting pairing considering they’re now both NTS residents. The 12 tracks that make up Depths were recorded 2016–2025 – in other words over most of her career. Selwa Abd, who’s been producing as Bergsonist for a decade, says “I really use making music as therapy, not as a precious act, more as an energy release that makes me feel alive”. And this record goes deeper into postcolonial heritages and the reclaiming of identity.

”Ode to Life” can also be heard on her EP of the same name from last year.
