The Sustain Series project continues with its second volume, 24 recycled forms created from old and unused material. Since the release of Volume 1 in November last year, more artists have come together to salvage, repurpose, restore and deconstruct each other’s pieces, or collaborate on a particular idea. What results is a growing variety of approaches and outputs, from minor embellishments to full disfigurement.

Volume 2 moves thematically, as if in four chapters, from the expressive openers, through enchanting natural-sounding pieces, before opening up to more ethereal expanses, and finally darker and more thoughtful ones. As it does, visions emerge of our natural world - its power, its beauty and its vulnerability.

Antarctic Wastelands, Julia Gjertsen, Snufmumriko, anthéne & Logic Moon - Sculpture 2 (by zarr.)

In "The Floating Garden," I've ventured into a realm where generative synths and the spirit of ambient music converge to create a magical, calming oasis. This single is a reflection of my journey, infused with a tiny touch of neoclassical elegance amidst the vast expanse of classic ambient landscapes. I aimed to cultivate an environment that invites listeners to float away into a serene, ethereal garden of their own making. I hope it brings you the same solace and wonder it brought me during its creation.

SVLBRD - Overseas

I was listening to some of the sound files I had made for past live performances to use as reference for a particular work. The file for a live performance in 2017, which I was supposed to appear but never did, really caught my attention. 

I have no idea what I was thinking at the time when I created the file with the looping processed water sound. All I can say is that the sound, though very simple, captured my heart in 2021. 

It was just a loop of some processed water sounds of different lengths, but there was a nostalgic comfort in it, like when I was still asleep in my mother's womb. 

In line with my concept as an artist, which is to "Multidirectionally considering aesthetics which are very familiar, often forgotten, concealed in nature or events, and finally reveal them," I discovered a beauty that I had seen many times but had been unaware for years in my Mac hard drive. It is very pleasant to listen to it by myself, so I present it here with some modifications to the original file.
