01The studio

We build instruments that compose themselves. Each piece is a system — rules, weather, the footsteps of whoever is listening — poured into a room and left to find its own shape.

Poured, not placed
Nothing is sequenced by hand. We shape the vessel; the sound finds its level.
Mirrored
Our systems listen first. A room’s echo, a crowd’s murmur, a draught under the door — all of it is material.
Never twice
No loop points, no fixed master. A score by us is a surface tension, not a recording.
