Just before the moon yawned dawn and broke through the shadows of the night, we found ourselves reduced to silence drawn into the floating story of Afumati.

Recorded at Experiment Intrinsic 01

Experimental soundscapes and live performances draw from a wide array of disciplines, from ambient, traditional and world, to early electronic, live avant-garde and contemporary.

Subtle yet expansive, introspective yet universal, we create a space with the support of likeminded people, to both collectively and individually explore the depth and richness of infinite existence.

As a DJ, I combine the relentless sound of hypnotic techno with my original research in metaphysics in order to transform philosophical ideas into a sonic experience of mind-body synergy. 

Inspired by the elusive relation between mind and matter, I take the perspective of neutral monism: that, at the most fundamental level of existence there is only one thing, and it is neither physical nor mental but rather constitutes the a priori dimension of possibility from which all reality derives.

Alongside, I specialise in fine art analogue photography, which has been featured as cover art by Codecast, Johan Sebastian, and on Freddy K’s Krzrzrz radio show – consolidated in my print exhibition series 'Fundamentals'. My ongoing DJ portrait series 'Naturalism' aims to converge aesthetics, sound, and semantics through synesthetic states of mind. 

Finally, following 3 years of concept writing for releases on Platform 22, I continue to create original concepts for my mix releases and independent projects on www.fradkin.nl.
