Working with found sound, Nexcyia weaves together harsh sound design and swooping soundscapes into works that bridge many moods.
Sound design and swooping soundscapes
Adam Dove (aka Nexcyia) is an African-American/French sound artist and experimental ambient musician based in London and Paris. Following his work for the past year, I must say that they are one of the experimental ambient artists to be watching in 2022. Their latest offering is just proof of that as Nexcyia treats sound as an entity through this 8-minute passage that is both evocative and sentimental. Working with found sound, Nexcyia weaves together harsh sound design and swooping soundscapes into works that bridge many moods, emotions and places through noise, granular synthesis, textures and rhythms.
Heading Into The Ocean With Tearful Eyes is available on Bandcamp.
