about 2faced1.com

2FACED1.com shows one persons two different faces in photos;

Persona 1:
WHAT YOU WANT TO BE
CONSIDERED AS

Persona 2:
WHAT YOU FEAR TO BE
CONSIDERED AS

This leads to a discussion about stereotypes and inner fears of getting misunderstood by the surroundings. Thoughts that every thinking modern day person does reflect upon. We're asking every day people from an innercity context where old categories as ethnicity, nationality, gender, sexuality and class are reassessed, why they choose to look like they do. We’re diggin' deep, peeling off garments, codes and attributes. We’re searching for transnational identities - is the conclusion that we choose whoever we want to be today?!

 

A 2FACED1 STATE OF MIND

A 2FACED1 is highly aware of existing stereotypes related to your own ethnicity, color, nationality, gender, sexual orientation and class. You’re trying to avoid them but sometimes also play with them to make people think twice about who you are. Two faced doesn’t mean anything negative here, it explains the double folded view you have on identity if you’re not the existing norm. Self awareness is a gift, because it also helps you to understand other peoples situations better. To be a 2FACED1 is to have the feet in different worlds, be able to move between them but feel rather at home in that space in between. You've stepped out of your comfort zone and has become one of the new identities where ol' categories are mashed up and rootlessness and non-given identity just means major possibilities.

Zhala "Slippin Around"

Post date Thu 19 Apr 2012 1:18 PM

F I N A L L Y! Our beloved fellow 2FACED1; ZHALA releases her debut singel!!! Best of the best! The voice, the stage persona, the Artist, the woman behind it is just beyond!!! Expect more to come! All friends were at Zhala's releaseparty yesterday, such a good vibe, so many amazing people, I smile when I think about it!

I've actually written her pressrelase below. It's music for you #2FACED1's.(Ps. Zhala is prounanced like the s uSual ah U get it)

 

Zhala “Slippin Around”

The sound of Zhala, pronounced [ʒɑ:lɑ:], recollect the shimmery times when Pop Music was bloody serious and there were no barriers between fine arts and pop culture.

Her first single “Slippin Around” is a bitter sweet hymn of atmospheric sound weaves, theatrical choirs, broken Electronica, rugged Lo-Fi drums and above all, the stunningly clear pop tone of Zhala’s voice.

With Stockholm as the physical base, but with the mindset of a modern day Transnational, Zhala’s music is futuristic, Cosmic Pop mixed up with Witchcraft Indie - for the ones who grew up with a little bit of everything, whether it was Rave, Bollywood or RnB.

The video is done by the most talked about man on the Net right now; Makode Linde.
