Abstraktionens Essens (Essence of Abstractions) is the latest boundary-pushing release from SKAMBIDT, the sonic alias of Danish composer, sound artist, and modular alchemist Lars Kivig.

This release is a deep dive into the raw material of sound itself—a dark fusion of Eurorack modular synthesis, field recordings, granular synthesis, analog synth textures, and the haunting resonance of live cello.

Each track unfolds like a dream suspended in static: fractured yet fluid, intimate yet immense. The album explores the fine line between chaos and composition—between what is heard and what is felt—offering listeners a deeply immersive and introspective listening experience. Whether through crackling textures, spectral drones, or the organic interplay between electronics and acoustic strings, Abstraktionens Essens invites you to lose yourself in the essence of abstraction.

For fans of experimental electronics, ambient noise, and exploratory sound art, Abstraktionens Essens is not to be missed.
