orfin is the alias of Danya Tkachenko, a musician from Kremenchuk and a member of the projects Tongi Joi and Tangara.

The album "Uvi Sni" came to life in May 2024 in a small room within Kremenchuk’s former cultural space. Danya secluded himself there for two weeks, diving deep into sound experiments, completely cut off from the outside world.
The album takes listeners on dreamlike journeys, blending the sounds of a Yamaha DX-21 FM synthesizer—its quirks adding a distinctive charm—with field recordings, cassette loops with voice samples, synthesizers, a Native American flute, a kalimba, and countless unidentifiable noises.
Danya describes the creative process as an unconscious flow where textures and soundscapes naturally emerged. The next step was shaping them into cohesive compositions—a post-production phase that stretched over two months.
"Honestly," Danya shares, "I’m not great at putting my music into words. I think the title says it all. If I had to explain, it’s like looking at reality through constantly shifting, melting, and breaking prisms. And through that, realizing there’s nothing beyond those prisms—it’s all just them."
