Six Missing is the ambient, meditative, and cinematic endeavor of award-winning sound designer, mixer and composer, TJ Dumser. His work appears in numerous film + tv projects and is often the backdrop to explorers looking inwardly.
As an avid meditator and inner journeyer, Dumser centers himself in the present moment to create deeply textured, lush, and emotional sonic landscapes that allow the listener to drift away or close their eyes and exist within the theater of the mind.
These cinematic soundscapes lend themselves to film, tv, and activities in which words fail to capture meaning.
Be present, be here, be well.

In 2019, Delhi scene musicians and long time Eno fans Shiv Ahuja and Jayant Manchanda started making ‘Songs For A Tired City’. The idea was to look back at the sounds they grew up with and brew them in Delhi sauce. The result was some sort of ambient, post-punk, industrial tape music for a city that’s like an itch you just cannot stop scratching. The music invokes longing for a past they never actually experienced and a sense of disquiet for a future they don’t want to experience.

Tom Leclerc is a French improviser and composer of contemporary electronic music. With his modular synthesizer and his lights, he works on improvised and pseudo-generative music combining meditation and emotions in sound. The challenge today is to be able to film performances in new places. A logistical and physical challenge that led him to the top of the mountains and to the edge of the ocean. He can thus be as close as possible to what inspires him, nature. These constraints imply being self- sufficient in energy and integrating a sobriety approach in the use of digital devices.
Tom Leclerc uses his technical engineering skills for his research around digital arts and with an appetite for the link between nature and the artist. Rethinking the consumption of art and its construction are today at the center of his reflections.
