'Opinion is the medium between knowledge and ignorance' PLATO

mid

PLATO is the melodic counterpart to brutish percussion box HOBBES . Like its philosophical namesake, PLATO is open minded and inspirational, but at it's core it is dark, very dark : ).  It is a groundbreaking ideas machine for inventing your own genres.  Deep cinematica, beautiful ambient dronescapes, skittering minimalism, melodic rhythm shadows and seductively brutalized grind is in there along with the gorgeous tones of hybrid acoustics rubbing along nicely together. 

​

PLATO is built around a network of subtle to dramatic interactions; sounds, frequencies, transients, levels and effects all affect and can change each other in surprising ways. It is an instrument you try and steer. Fortunately the complex stuff is under the hood,  you use the intuitive GUi to wrangle new ideas and bend new sounds without getting bogged down with details. Merge and melt the unexpected into ravishing new music with a daft grin on your face.​ ...well that's what I do : )
