Good pal of mine Suren otherwise known under his moniker MPSF (My Panda Shall Fly) has teamed up with Mr Benjamin Jackson on a collaborative e.p. “LET’S VIBRATE TOGETHER”
Recording the bulk of the EP without having even met – the result? An immersive, textured sound full of steppy tension, drawing in a range of influences and juxtaposing analogue warmth with abrasive beats and stabs.
Having no musical background or formal teaching, Suren has gone through many an incarnation until he found where he was comfortable – from shoe-gaze, post-punk rock in his early teens to sound manipulation and experimentation in his later years.
Ben starting his musical career as a drummer, he moved towards new technologies without this background ever being far removed from his very rhythmical creative process.. He has been exploring analogue mediums of sound and art via releases on his own label, ‘Thanqu’.
