Panospria → Shoebomber → Cantus In Memory Of Lasantha Wickramatunga

Description

The listener is guided through evolving imaginary landscapes where the gray area between synthesized sounds and their natural counterparts is explored. Electronic gestures and polyrhythms harmonize with field recordings of the bustling cities, temples and rainforests of Southeast Asia. Technology is not used to infringe upon ecological and cultural soundscapes, but accentuates their musical and ephemeral nature.

Nimalan is currently studying Electroacoustic Music at Concordia University and has completed a Bachelors Degree in Electrical Engineering from McGill University. He also performs and records with various local free-jazz, noise, and improvisational musicians. → Full bio
