Seamlessly morphing from live studio recording techniques to multi-instrument choreography, including modular and analog synths, digital synths, samples, and acoustic elements, Howard Givens and Madhavi Devi explore a mindful relationship with music, spiritual practice, and the self-healing arts.
Reviews
Braulio Lam :: Apertura (Dragon’s Eye)
A minimal movement that creates a sense of resolve and peace, like a mantra after a journey through the dark night of the soul.
Arovane :: Tides 2022 Remaster / Reissue (Keplar)
Tides tells a story, has a vision, and is not just a collection of works as so many albums fell foul of.
Fleck E.S.C. :: 486.134 EP (Science Cult)
If an AI were tasked with cross-pollinating Thomas Dolby with Photek, it might sound a lot like this funky, freaky, frantic masterpiece.
Sunwarper :: Radiant Visage (Audionautic)

User Friendly :: APF7U (Detroit Underground)
Whether APF7U is user friendly or not is debatable, nonetheless, User Friendly provides ample glitched-out and sliced’n diced electronics shifting from broken rhythmic forms to more coherent threads.
Futuregrapher :: Geirþjófsfjörður (Neotantra)
As a whole, Geirþjófsfjörður has a touch of the epic without being obtuse. It’s a fine balance and finely achieved….
Microfilm :: O/V/N/I (Self Released)
After several dreamy ups and downs, in the end, artists Matthew Mercer and Matt Keppel are on to something; something almost cinematic.
V/A :: INFOHAZARD (Renraku)
INFOHAZARD exemplifies Renraku’s vision of releasing audible tectonic plates scraping against each other like we’ve not heard before.
marine eyes :: chamomile (Past Inside the Present)
Each passage is soaked in true feelings that chooses warmth to fill up our own negative space.
Le Perche Oreille :: We Are Robots (Concrete Collage)
We Are Robots provides plenty of brittle collisions and polished sonic artifacts with curious melodies and briskly shuffled rhythms…
