The Silver Cord

Gilgamesh

From the underground of State College, PA, Zanzagar channels sound as a force for connection, catharsis, and collective memory. A resident of The 8 Ball, a long-running DIY venue and cultural outpost, he blends bass-heavy experimentalism with soulful depth, drawing from the living flow of Vedic philosophy and devotional practice, weaving far-flung sonic artifacts from dubstep, grime, and ambient textures into a transcendent whole.

Each set unfolds like a living landscape: fluid, textured, and breathing. Zanzagar sculpts sound that awakens the quiet pulses of matter and spirit, tending to the spaces that interweave bodies, emotions, and frequencies. Whether behind decks or building community spaces, he moves with intention: to cultivate and nurture space for truth, release, and shared presence.

Built for the whole nervous system, his mixes bypass the mind and wash through the senses. You don’t just hear them. You inhabit them.

🌀
For the ones who stay late and listen deep.
Frequencies that remember.
Signals that know we walk each other home.
