Mustelide
Mustelide is a synth enthusiast, songwriter, and electronic music producer originating from Minsk and currently based in Berlin. Beyond her solo work at the intersection of club and experimental music, she is also active as a composer – creating soundtracks for short films and live scores for silent cinema. She has released three albums as well as several singles and remixes. Her most recent album, Ginseng Woman, was entirely composed using recordings of broken orchestral instruments provided by the American music collective Found Sound Nation.
Her live score for My Grandmother is not merely a new soundtrack – it is a feminine reinterpretation of a film that satirically dismantles the patriarchal world of bureaucracy and power. Working with analog synthesizers, broken instruments, and field recordings, Mustelide puts together layered, emotionally charged sound structures that resonate perfectly with the film’s aesthetic unease and chaotic montage. Her approach to sound – as raw, distorted, sometimes defiant material – reflects a critical perspective on how technology can be both a tool of control and a medium of liberation.
