A collaboration between myself and Berlin-based artist Xanah, on vocals. Characterized by stilted beats heavy 808s, and dark droning synths, along with icy vocal samples, this beat is surely a very different direction for me. I hope you enjoy it.

Ambrosia Ft. Xanah [Dub Techno / Trip Hop] (REMASTERED)

Ambient minimalism is gaining momentum. Some would argue that evoking atmosphere is harder than sequencing beats, and Fragments of Silence is proof. Laden with lush textures and ambient leanings, the album invites deep listening.

This 8-track LP marks the debut collaboration between Synthbiont, Anassimandrus, and Sacred Seeds: three artists with distinct sensibilities, united by a shared affinity for ambient, experimental, and dub techno sounds. Their convergence sets the tone for a singular, immersive experience.

Fragments of Silence is not background music. It’s a serious body of work that commands attention. It’s an hour-long descent into a vacuum chamber. An environment that evolves, coils, shifts, and builds toward dissonance and stillness.

Each track is grounded in a strong atmospheric character, unfolding with deliberate progression. The album leans heavily into experimental minimalism, imagine dark tunnels, ominous energy fields, and brooding landscapes.

Fragments of Silence is one of those albums that explores the intersection of distinct creative temperaments, marked by structure, mood, and experimentation. The result is an album that flows with intention and feeling, creating a space that listeners can fully sink into.

Description by SreeLakshmy 

Sacred Seeds is an ambient electronic music project by Wasim, founded in 2014 in Calicut, Kerala (India). Blending synthesis, field recordings, and experimental sound design, Sacred Seeds’ music explores the interplay between organic and electronic textures.

Sacred Seeds has performed at renowned festivals such as Magnetic Fields, Hilltop Festival, and Bloom in Green, sharing the stage with influential artists like Gaudi, OTT, Suduaya, and Symbolico, and many more.

Synthbiont & Anassimandrus is the ambient/experimental/dub techno project born at the end of 2018 by the collaboration between Nicolò Faggiani and Tommaso Gobbo. Their musical background comes from different musical experiences as DJs, vinyl collectors, and founders of EMC series. Their performances and music are composed through the elaboration of different digital and analog sources, processed field recordings, and sampling to create unique soundscapes.

Produced and mixed by Nicolò Faggiani and Tommaso Gobbo (Synthbiont & Anassimandrus) (1,2,5,6) and Wasim Raja (Sacred Seeds) (3,4,7,8)

as a central point of reference of grischa lichtenberger‘s »la demeure/il y a péril en la demeure« complex, raster-noton releases a limited edition of three 12“ vinyl EPs that are accompanied by a handmade, signed and individualized screen print.

the three EPs were set up as an experiment. each of the records is guided by a word that could be described as a phantasmagoria, a delusion of the 20th century – like a metaphor that is concerned not only with its immediate meaning, but with an implication more emotional, more irrational, telling something about the mindset of the not so distant past.

these keywords already existed before the production on the tracks began and thus played the role of an indirect orientation or playground for association. nevertheless, the EPs are not conceptualized, but rather a collection of habits and strategies in relation to the titles.

common to all EPs of the triptych is the question of a connection between intimacy and the public sphere. aesthetically, the music presented on the EPs ranges from distressing and unaligned dancefloor-oriented tracks to tribal and politically charged drones to unsettling noise ballads. on »spielraum«, for example, hypnotizing music box melodies are combined with claustrophobic breakbeats. »allgegenwart«, on the other hand, presents mechanical rhythms and sawing pads, topped with high-pitched warning sounds. last but not least, the final EP »strahlung« features self-forgetful, gloomy and melancholy tracks backed by melodies that remind of a barrel organ turned upside down.

please note: this special edition is limited to 500 copies and was printed, stamped and signed by the artist himself. print and paint application variations are intended.

система | system presents "Bubny Voices" audio Installation by Ukrainian Kyiv-based artists NFNR & unwavemenot.
~ "The Bubny Voices is an artistic documentation of the Nádraží Bubny area in Prague, which is about to be destroyed .
The compositions are created by Ukrainian composers unwavemenot & NFNR out of field recordings collected around the Bubny railway station by local inhabitants.
Originally the piece was supposed to be a site-specific performance at Nádraží Bubny. Due to the COVID-19 outbreak borders were closed, thus the invited artists NFNR & unwavemenot did not have access to the city. They decided to approach Bubny through auditory impressions of the local residents.
Bubny Voices reflects the experience of new places based on imagination rather than sensations. In such a way, the artists fulfill a need for discovery in times of limited freedom of movement. They suggest using imagination in order to document places that disappear. The work means to grasp collective aural memories of Bubny to be able to experience the area after its disappearance.
Bubny Voices were created as part of the Performance Crossing Festival in Prague in May-June 2020.." - NFNR & unwavemenot

~ "Bubny Voices — це музична документація району залізничної станції Бубни у Празі, яку невдовзі знесуть.
Композиції створені українськими композиторками NFNR & unwavemenot на основі польових записів, зібраних навколо залізничної станції місцевими жителями.
Роботи мали бути створені як site-specific інсталяція у споруді вокзалу. Через спалах COVID-19 та закриті кордони запрошені музикантки NFNR & unwavemenot не мали можливості працювати з місцем особисто. Вони вирішили вивчити Бубни через акустичні досвіди місцевих жителів.
Bubny Voices є переживанням досвіду міста на основі уяви, а не відчуттів. Так музикантки задовольняють потребу у нових враженнях і відкриттях у часи обмеженої свободи пересування. У подібний спосіб, вони пропонують використовувати уяву для документації місць, що зникають. Композиції вбирають колективі акустичні спогади про район, щоб мати можливість відчути цю місцевість після її зникнення.
Bubny Voices були створені в рамках фестивалю Performance Crossing у Празі у травні-червні 2020" - NFNR & unwavemenot
