“Juda” by Vishvesh Parmar is a soulful and thought-provoking track that questions the divisions humanity has created in the name of religion. Through poignant lyrics, it reflects on the irony of worshipping the same divine power—whether called Bhagwan or Khuda—yet remaining separated by walls of fear, prejudice, and conflict. The song urges listeners to choose light over darkness, unity over division, and peace over violence. It’s not just a song, but a call for harmony and human connection in a world torn apart by differences.

core-core ft. Sanjana

Aarktica's 10th studio album merges transcendent atmospheres with darkly danceable rhythms,
expansive analog synths and layers of tape-echo guitars. The result is an immersive sound that pays homage to classic darkwave and art-rock, with hypnotic ambience and a lyrical embrace of the bittersweet.

This album is a scam. Or isn't it?

In 1992 and 1993 (as a 22 yr old) I recorded a lot of my own songs on cassette. Just me, my acoustic guitar, bass, and sometimes percussion or even borrowed drums. In my head, the songs sounded like the indie guitar bands and the grungy vibe that was in fashion at the time. Most of these tracks were left unfinished, apart from a few re-recordings and later releases.

Now, AI technology makes it possible for these songs to finally sound the way I roughly imagined them back then. Complemented by two songs I wrote in 2013 (at 44). All song structures, melodies and riffs are mine. AI just gave them a new skin. Sometimes it sounds like the band I never had in '93; other times it feels like a modern reinterpretation of that era’s sound. And I love it. Although it’s also a little frightening.

The songs were once sung by a younger me, but this time I let a woman’s voice carry them. I love the contrast: understated, emotionally contained vocals against harder sounds.

These 90's songs, together with the two later pieces (Day Upon Day, Red Moon) form a bridge between who I was and who I’ve become.

This project isn’t a gimmick. It started with curiosity. But turned out to be a conversation between eras. I fed an unfinished past into the system, and what came out feels both intimately human and eerily pristine. That friction between artefact and upgrade is where Repetition Is a Sound finds its soul.

For me it feels like the songs finally found their balance. Like a dialogue between presence and distance, noise and tenderness. Red versus Blue.

Hate to Hear It

This is a song I wrote to pay a little tribute to the end of a relationship
