"The follow-up to her Ayshay project with Tri Angle Records (Billboard's #1 Indie 2011), which was constructed entirely out of her own vocals to reconfigure the concept of 'sacred' music, and the critically acclaimed Muslim trance mixes, which combine sunni and shi'ite acapella prayers. GSX fuses her modern, pseudo-classical composition with genres like hip hop, juke and dubstep, reinterpreting and engaging the barriers of sound specificity. This conceptual record defies sound specificity, breaking out of the identity in a select genre of music and reinterpreting them. 'Hip Hop Spa' was conceived as the soundtrack to a luxury spa for rappers (where they get a chance to hang up their bling). 'How Can I Resist U' is her epic love letter to dubstep. Each piece takes you seamlessly between microcosms of world dance music, while inhabiting a fantasy realm of cinematic harmony."
