2nd Album
Hidden Time Loops (2026)
This work weaves together Hoshiko Yamane’s dark Moog synthesiser textures with Mikael Lind’s sparkling, granular soundscapes, forming sonic landscapes that traverse the boundaries between ambient and electronic music. Minimal yet intricate violin and piano harmonies are added, quietly drawing the listener into the realm of contemporary music.
1st Album
Spaces in Between(2019)
The idea behind the album title Spaces in Between is conceptual, imagining the space between Berlin and Reykjavik as Hoshiko and Mikael were sending ideas back and forth over the internet from their respective homes without having actually met in real life. They held their first (but probably not last) concert at the Extreme Chill Festival in Reykjavik this fall, and the receptions from the crowd were very positive. Musically, they both have a knack for creating mesmerizing ambient music with classical influences. With violin, viola and piano being at the forefront, and synths and sound design wrapping their themes up as a larger musical environment, they have created something extremely special here!
