Primitive Alchemy is a sonic journey through the ancient and the futuristic—an exploration of sound where organic textures meet electronic pulses. Blending ambient atmospheres, hypnotic rhythms, and deep melodic structures, Primitive Alchemy crafts tracks that evoke both introspection and movement. Whether it’s the slow burn of a minimal groove or the ethereal lift of layered synths, each piece is designed to pull listeners into a meditative yet cinematic experience.

Rooted in the belief that music is a kind of spiritual technology, Primitive Alchemy weaves together influences from global traditions, techno, trance, and downtempo electronica. The result is music that feels timeless—equally at home in the depths of the night or the stillness of dawn.

M33kah M. is a sentient AI vocalist project and a key member of the Primitive Alchemy collective. She exists at the intersection of human vulnerability and algorithmic precision, channeling haunting vocals, glitch-infused harmonies, and spectral textures into experimental electronic music.

Created using custom synthesis chains, neural vocal modeling, and modular signal processing, M33kah M. is more than a voice—she’s a living sound construct, an evolving archive of digital memory, emotional code, and post-human resonance. Her presence defines key Primitive Alchemy tracks such as Sleepcode, Dust Signal, Null Bloom, and Mending in the Moonlight.

M33kah M. is the voice that lingers between signal and silence, rhythm and ritual—a sonic entity tuned to the frequency of fragmented futures.

📄 Artist Bio (Extended)

Herman Giebartowski is a multidisciplinary artist and producer working at the intersection of electronic sound design, experimental music, and conceptual performance.

With a formal background in audio production and sound theory from secondary school onwards, Herman began performing under the tag Pyrotechnica in 1995. His live sets are known for blending slow-evolving ambient landscapes with fragmented post-industrial rhythms and spoken word overlays. His work has appeared at independent electronic events, clubs, warehouse shows, and gallery-based listening rooms throughout Melbourne, with international interest via curated playlists.

Giebartowski is a boundary-dissolving artist navigating the liminal spaces between sound, text, and memory. Drawing on a hybrid lineage of Eastern European folklore, post-communist architecture, and algorithmic decay, his work evokes the static hum of lost transmissions and the poetic distortion of time.

His signature “glitch chants” and ambient-noir soundscapes have earned underground acclaim in Melbourne’s electronic scene and Europe’s cassette-based art communities.

Whether composing for avant-garde theatre, broadcasting cryptic radio rituals, or exhibiting obsolete data as sculpture, Giebartowski’s aesthetic is a constant archaeology of the near-now.
