Perera Elsewhere, the Berlin-based, UK-raised electronic artist, DJ, lyricist, producer, composer, sound artist and trumpeter, who has been become a cult figure with her mercurial blend of beats, experimental pop, spoken word and tech-electro, makes a return to release potent double single ‘F*ck Le System’ / ‘Time Will Tell’, with both bangers featuring Côte d’Ivoire’s sickest rapper Andy S. The ice cold double single is out now on Friends Of Friends. Listen HERE.
Perera Elsewhere, aka Sasha Perera, also announces her fourth album ‘Just Wanna Live Some’, with 12 tracks that take her sound and experimental creativity to a new level, that will be released on 24th October 2025. Pre-save here.
‘F*ck Le System’ is an urgent feast of electro-rap meets tech-dancehall, propelled by syncopated typewriter clicks and arpeggiated trumpet stabs played by Perera. Its message is of potent feminine strength, it is keyed-up activism with timely lyrics delivered by Andy S’s defiant bars ‘Long story short bro fuck le système’. ‘Time Will Tell’ is underscored by dark bass, glitchy beats and ethereal vocals over which Andy S lays down a sick flow, trash talking any pretenders in true hip hop tradition, with a chorus that translates as ‘These guys talk about me, but I’m not the same person I used to be’.
Studio mastermind, Perera Elsewhere has produced both tracks, platforming Andy S’ fiery French rap vocals, with Perera’s own minimal vocals combining to great effect. Perera and Andy S recording together is the fruition of a friendship that began after Perera played an Andy S tune during her now legendary DJ set at Boiler Room Festival in Berlin last year, which saw Andy S go on to have a breakthrough moment in Berlin, returning to play gigs with Cassette Head Sessions and Fusion Festival. A visualiser for ‘F*ck Le System’ also drops of both artists performing the track together, a sick collaboration.
