"like waves crashing on a faraway planet"
Electronic music can push buttons inside you. Synthetic but alluding to the realm of organic and even to nature. Listening to electronic writers and producers TROVA's and Dashii's first EP together called "Life and Death" you will have buttons pushed in wonderful ways. Take for example, the track TROVA's Dream, while full of nuanced sounds, it might be the imagery it creates in your mind that ultimately sticks with you. For me it is otherworldly, vast images of rings around Saturn, unbelievable fantasies like waves crashing on a faraway planet. While these beautiful, powerful sounds create a hyper realistic tone they are steeped in orchestral motifs. Call it neo-classical, ambient & drone or pysbient, it is glorious stuff.

Creating Electronic music with a focus on slower moving pieces open to interpretation. Every release has a different emotion attached to it and is usually a reflection of a time, conversation or place.
