Discover the innovative sound of Kavall, a groundbreaking solo artist and composer who redefines the boundaries of music and art. With a unique blend of film scores and multimedia art installations, Kavall has made his mark in the world of contemporary music. In 2018, he introduced the world to "As if the Air Was Grainy Substance," an album showcasing the mesmerizing tones of his self-developed instrument, Monolo.Kavall's talent extends beyond albums; his compositions have breathed life into award-winning documentaries and captivating art installations. In 2019, he launched the revolutionary Spatial Guitar format, captivating audiences with immersive performances at prestigious venues and festivals around the globe.Kavall's latest work takes listeners on a transformative journey where melody and movement converge. Imagine a composition that doesn't just play around you but envelops you-a physical space where you can exist within the very elements that momentarily become the music. This is the essence of "inmitten" (amidst), born from the desire to be physically inside the music, intuitively shaping this sonic environment with the instrument.At the heart of this experience is a new kind of instrument: a spatially playable guitar with independent voices. This innovation redefines what solo guitar can be, transforming every aspect of performing, recording, and experiencing music. For Kavall, this is more than just a new sound; it's a complete transformation as a composer and player.Spatial Guitar offers a multidimensional experience, where the listener becomes immersed in the music. The compositions are informed by embodied sensations-circulating textures, musical pulses, and a poetic minimalism that invites you to explore the intricate layers of spatially distributed chords and slowly unfolding melodies. From the live performances set within a hexagon of speakers and audio-reactive lights to the recorded form of this album, the instrument's sound evolves in close interaction with it's surroundings, creating a deep connection with the listener.Now that this vision has come to life, Kavall shares, "This is what I always imagined my instrument to sound like. I hope you enjoy exploring this musical space as much as I do."Experience the artistry of Kavall, where innovation meets emotion, and sound becomes a transformative journey. Don't miss the chance to explore the world of Kavall's music-where each note invites you into a new dimension of sonic exploration.
