Artist description
Using synthesizers, electronics, outboard processing gear and an array of exotic instruments, Belgian electronic musician Vidna Obmana creates an extended musical journey through rhythms, soundworlds and sonic atmospheres. The name Vidna Obmana was chosen for his musical persona because it is a Serbo-Croatian term that translates as "optical illusion", a concept that correlates sonically with the surreal, alternate sound worlds depicted in hismusic. A prolific composer, Vidna Obmana has built a diverse body of work, ranging from post-industrial to gently atmospheric, tribal ambient to more traditional forms. His compositions utilize slow, shifting electronic figures to construct long, minimalist, often extremely personal textural works. Throughout Vidna Obmana's career, he has explored the abrasive side of electronic composition, the freeform landscapes of the isolationist ambient aesthetic, the structured interactivity of Fourth World soundworlds,international music traditions and post-classical experimentations. His music has been released by a wide range of independent labels worldwide, including: Amplexus, Extreme, Hic Sunt Leones, Hypnos, Mirage, Multimood,ND, Projekt and others. A major portion of Vidna Obmana's work has been realized in collaboration with some of the world's most interesting musicians. He has recorded full-length releases with Alio Die, PBK, Jeff Pearce, Steve Roach, Djen Ajakan Shean and Asmus Tietchens. |
