“Simulacrealm” is one of Archer 23’s most conceptually ambitious pieces—a sonic exploration of reality, illusion, and the spaces where digital and emotional worlds blur. The title itself hints at a layered experience, and the music delivers: intricate, evolving, and immersive from the first note.

The track opens with a crystalline atmosphere—glitch-like textures and refracted synth tones that feel both futuristic and introspective. As rhythmic elements emerge, they create a sense of motion through an artificial landscape, evoking imagery of simulated skies and dreamlike architecture. Each layer seems to question what’s real and what’s constructed, echoing the philosophical undertones of the piece.

Archer 23’s production is meticulous, yet it never feels sterile. Beneath the polished surface lies a pulse of human emotion—yearning, curiosity, perhaps even disorientation. It’s this balance between precision and feeling that makes it resonate so deeply.

“Simulacrealm” is a mesmerizing fusion of sound design and sentiment—a digital mirage rendered with striking emotional clarity. Archer 23 transforms abstraction into atmosphere, crafting a world that’s as haunting as it is beautiful.

Stevin McNamara has been playing and recording music for over 40 years.
He is in the unique position of being an accomplished 
Composer/Musician and a Recording Engineer.

Born in South Africa, Stevin started learning piano and guitar at the age 
of seven. He played solo and in bands all the way through high school.
At the age of twenty one, Stevin moved to the United States, where he 
had more formal training at Berklee College of Music in Boston Mass.
He has been involved in music ever since.

Although Stevin grew up with the sounds of African Music, he also 
discovered Indian Music in the early seventies and studied the Sitar with 
Ram Chakravarty of Benares who was then professor of music at 
Wesleyan College in Connecticut.
This diverse exposure to such a broad spectrum of music, ranging from 
World to Pop has contributed to the unique musical style he has 
developed over the years.

In the late seventies, after spending considerable time as a session 
musician in recording studios, Stevin became fascinated with what was 
happening on the "other side of the glass", namely the recording process
itself. This passion developed into a highly successful career as an audio 
engineer.

He has worked in the fields of Popular music World, Folk, Jazz, Film and 
Television in top studios in South Africa, England, and the United States,
He is perfectly at home in any State of the Art recording facility, or Live 
Sound scenario, even at Stadium Concert level. He is qualified to teach 
Audio engineering at College level.

Stevin has worked with well- known producers such as Robert John "Mutt"
Lange and a huge spectrum of recording artists (see Artist List - www.yogitar.com)
