Alternative fusion artist 'As Per Casper' has finally unleashed their highly anticipated 4 track EP, 'Flow.' Originating in Dubai, this collective is fronted by lead singer-songwriter Carla Saad, whose collaborative efforts with musicians from various nationalities result in the creation of music that masterfully blends traditional Western and Arabic influences, giving birth to rich, symphonic musical compositions.

The EP's lead single, 'Abnormal,' serves as a sonic manifesto for As Per Casper's distinctive sound. In collaboration with long-time partner Font Leroy, the duo crafts an alternative R&B track that seamlessly weaves catchy melodies into their signature sonically rich tapestry.

When discussing the track, As Per Casper reveals, “The track started out with the intention of flowing, not riding against the tide cause that's when things get harder, trusting the flow you're on, taking what comes embracing it and making the most of it while trusting what the universe has in store for us since there are so many variables we can't control.”

Carla Saad, the visionary behind As Per Casper, firmly believes in the power of music to dismantle barriers and shatter stereotypes. In a world increasingly divided, the collective sees music as a bridge for the exchange of ideas and stories. Their collaborative approach fosters an environment where artists from around the globe can share their experiences and cultures, transcending boundaries.

Carla Saad herself embodies this cross-cultural ethos, hailing from Syrian-Palestinian origins and with connections spanning from Dubai to the UK and now Berlin. She intimately understands the wealth of musical diversity and culture that both the East and West have to offer.

The journey of As Per Casper began with the release of their debut album, 'Hit The Ground,' in 2016, which soared to the top of the iTunes Middle East chart. Since then, Carla Saad and her collective have graced stages far and wide, including prestigious events such as Expo 2020, where they opened for Mariah Carey and Hussein Al Jasmi, the Mother of the Nation festival with Craig David and Sherine, and the Fête de la Musique at the Dubai Opera, among others. Their work has garnered accolades from Vogue Arabia, along with multiple nominations for 'Best Original Act' and 'Best Local Act/Band' at the TimeOut Dubai and What's On Awards. They've also collaborated with prominent brands like Shure, Absolut Vodka, and LUSH.

With two previous singles, 'Heat' and 'H.M.U,' already setting a high bar and receiving praise from the likes of Notion, Earmilk, and Music Crowns, 'As Per Casper' eagerly anticipates the release of 'Flow.' As they continue to inspire collaboration, foster discussion, and encourage the exchange of ideas through their music, the collective remains a vibrant testament to the transcendent power of music in our interconnected world.
