FOUNDER / @carktechno

VARUS, one of the founders of ÇARK, is a hard industrial techno artist based in Istanbul. In his sound, atmosphere plays a central role as a multidimensional concept that shapes sensory, emotional, and intellectual effects. He often prefers to use ominous and unsettling synths alongside harsh and shattering kicks. Irregular sounds buried beneath a steady 4/4 rhythm or unexpectedly shifting tones push the boundaries between familiarity and alienation. The atmosphere he aims to create is dominated by uncertainty and eeriness. He believes this aligns directly with the inherent uncertainty of life and the unknown nature of the future.
