Music by Konstrakt Kollektive - K:NSTRAKT is a collective of avant-garde sound designers having a strong influence from arts, cutting-edge technologies + futuristic lifestyle, it is an open-source. Founded in the late 2010 by a group of avid music devotees who have been dwelling in the local music scene since circa 04 - 05 later on wandered deeper into the underground trails of minimalist music and got enticed by the ominous experimental soundscapes. They have been experimenting with powerful softwares like Ableton live, Konkreet Performer, Griid and Traktor as weapons of choice to trigger abstract sounds of techno, ambient + IDM beats, constructed and structured with chaotic sound waves intertwined with minimalistic animations amidst subtle aesthetic audio/visual pleasures.
