Hvordan taler man om de ting, som der ikke er ord for, men som er blevet mærket, af én selv og af medlemmer af ens slægt? Det gør man gennem lyde og musik, fortæller musiker Takiaya Reed, der står bag doom-projektet Divide and Dissolve og er cherokee og afrikansk-amerikansk af afstamning. Projektet Divide and Dissolve centrerer oprindelige folks suverænitet, og hermed også den kærlighed og det håb, som er nødvendig for at overkomme systemisk undertrykkelse. “The love is insatiable, and the strength that comes from that”, sagde hun for nyligt til radiostationen KEXP, med henvisning til titlen på det album fra april 2025, som hun er aktuel med, nemlig ‘Insatiable’ (på dansk: umættelig).
Bag sig har Divide and Dissolve albummene ‘Basic’ fra 2017, ‘Abomination’ fra 2018, det kritikerroste album ‘Gas Lit’ fra 2023 og – som nævnt – ‘Insatiable’. Projektets lyd, som bliver skabt med percussion, guitar, piano, synths og saxofon, er overvældende: Heavy og så himmelsk, skønt og så dissonant, sludge-riffs vævet sammen med orkestrale passager. I 2022 kunne man opleve Divide and Dissolve på Roskilde Festivals Platform-scene, og i 2023 havde vi glæden af at præsentere Divide and Dissolve på ALICE. 2024 var ligeledes begivenhedsrig for Takiaya Reed: Divide and Dissolve spillede til brandet Miu Mius modeshow og på klubben Berghain i Berlin; på Venedig-biennalen, New York Sculpture Center og kunstmuseet MASS MoCA i Massachusetts i USA. Vi ser frem til at mærke larmen fra Divide and Dissolve, når projektet gæster ALICE til oktober!

In English:
Beauty, noise, and resistance. The critically acclaimed doom-project Divide and Dissolve’s frequencies are so heavy, they will make your nostrils flutter.
How to speak about the things, you do not have words for, but have been felt for generations? Through sound and music, according to musician Takiaya Reed, who’s behind the doom-project Divide and Dissolve and Black and Cherokee. The project focuses on Indigenous Sovereignty, and hereby also the love and hope, necessary to overcome systemic oppression. “The love is insatiable, and the strengh that comes from that”, Takiaya Reed said recently to the radiostation KEXP, referring to her 2025-album ‘Insatiable’.
Behind them, Divide and Dissolve have the albums ‘Basic’ from 2017, ‘Abomination’ from 2018, the critically acclaimed ‘Gas Lit’ from 2023, and – as mentioned – the newly released Insatiable. The project's sound, created with percussion, guitar, piano, synths, and saxophone, is overwhelming: heavy and heavenly, beautiful and dissonant, with sludge riffs interwoven with orchestral passages. In 2022, Divide and Dissolve performed on the Platform stage at Roskilde Festival, and in 2023, we had the pleasure of presenting Divide and Dissolve at ALICE. 2024 was equally eventful for Takiaya Reed: Divide and Dissolve played at fashion brand Miu Miu’s runway show and at the Berlin club Berghain; at the Venice Biennale, the New York Sculpture Center, and the art museum MASS MoCA in Massachusetts, USA. We look forward to feeling the noise of Divide and Dissolve when the project returns to ALICE this October!
