About the Artist
Akul Kaul is a multimodal sound artist living in Brooklyn, NY. Their modes of activity currently cycle between composer, DJ, multi-instrumentalist, sound designer, and producer. Akul's workflow tends to feel most organic in a state of alienation, which is the underlying sensation that their sound is rooted in: developing comfort with otherness. While alienation provides inception, Akul finds sustained inspiration from mystical elements in nature to shape sonic landscapes: outer space, the ocean, trees, and our subconscious. Flirting with sounds that live in between the musical communities they have encountered, Akul's productions currently lie at the intersection of electroacoustic and psybient, rooted in a process of layering improvised ideas together.
