NOIA – “As Per My Last Email”
"As per my last email" is just an absolute nightmare phrase, a thing that you hate to see.

The new single "As Per My Last Email" by NOIA, from the artist Gisela Fullà-Silvestre, is a thumping, glitched-out avant-club track that explores the constant online demands of modern office life. The song features Fullà-Silvestre repeating phrases like "As per my last email, I haven't been able to focus" and "I'm available all night, all day, every day" using digital effects to chop her voice into shards.
FULLÀ-SILVESTRE, a Barcelona-born, Brooklyn-based composer and sound designer, made this her first new music since her 2023 debut album, "gisela." The video for the single, shot in the Bronx Riviera, depicts Fullà-Silvestre in surreal permutations of a work environment amidst natural landscapes, representing the blurred line between work and life in late-stage capitalism.
The video's unsettling, cathartic nature reflects the cost of being always online and the disorienting reality of hyperfunctionality. "As Per My Last Email" is available now on Casa Fulla/Translucent Frequency.
