Nimalan YoganathanCA

Nimalan Yoganathan's beat soundscapes bridge the gap between academic and urban approaches to sound art. He re-appropriates the technical and conceptual aesthetics of hip-hop and dub idioms. Nimalan creates dense textures blending meditative drones, blunted beats, and field recordings of bustling cities, desolate landscapes, and spiritual sites. He has released albums on labels including Le Son 666 and Panospria (No_Type). His works have been disseminated at festivals and venues including MUTEK, Suoni per il Popolo, Pop Montreal, OBORO, Darling Foundry, and Oscar Peterson Concert Hall.
