DATURA 01
Released: 01 April 2025
Label: Random Artefacts
Genre: Dance / Electronic
DATURA 01 serves as the sonic foundation for a three-part audiovisual series soundtracking tenderness in a restless world. The album moves between atmospheric calm and bass-heavy intensity, echoing the duality of the Datura plant—both alluring and perilous. It blends ritualistic affirmations, abstract rhythms and dark dub with cinematic soundscapes, creating a reflective journey without relying on traditional beats or melodies.

DATURA 01 extends beyond sound into a visual world entirely conceived, directed, and produced by Suki Quasimodo. Each film sits within a three-part audiovisual series exploring tenderness in a restless world, where real and unreal textures coexist. The work merges self-crafted art direction, experimental moving image, and early explorations with AI, used not as automation but as emotional distortion, a way to materialise feeling through digital form.
Through this evolving process, Quasimodo builds a world by hand: fluid, cinematic, and dreamlike, where fragility and intensity meet.

BIOGRAPHY
Suki Quasimodo (b. Singapore) is the sonic alias of artist and writer Pamm Hong, a London-based experimental electronic musician whose practice moves between sound, moving image, and cultural research.
Working across these mediums, she explores tenderness in a restless world—blending ambient textures, sub-bass, and spoken word into immersive compositions that feel both cinematic and intimate. Influenced by artists such as Mica Levi, Space Afrika, and FKA twigs, her work bridges club culture and ambient cinema, blurring emotion and architecture through sound.
Her debut EP, DATURA 01 (Random Artefacts, 2025), emerged from a year marked by grief, loss, and self-confrontation. The record became an act of renewal—an exploration of endurance, softness, and the courage to stay open. Between 2024 and 2025, Quasimodo toured Asia with the release, performing in listening bars, record stores, and intimate venues while developing a self-directed residency and research journey through Japan and China. During this period she began writing DATURA 02 and studying Nüshu, an ancient female writing system from rural Hunan, examining how language, sound, and emotional memory intertwine.
Every visual and moving-image element—from artwork to live visuals—is conceived, directed, and crafted by Quasimodo herself, forming a cohesive world built entirely by hand. She is also the founder of Random Artefacts, a studio and Substack that functions as a living research journal—part essay archive, part dispatch log—exploring systems, softness, sound, and survival through long-form writing and cultural critique.
Quasimodo lives and works in London.

Quasimodo’s live work extends the emotional and textural worlds of DATURA into physical space — from intimate listening sessions to experimental ensembles.
Recent showcases include a meditative performance at Shai Space, London, a guest mix for CDR Takeover at Voices Radio, and a special collaboration with composer Henry Prince and a 12-guitar drone ensemble for Generation of Cohesion at Swiss Church, London. Each setting reimagines her music as a sensory dialogue — immersive, emotional, and alive in the moment.
