Cyberspectra by Audio Units

Audio Units, the collaborative venture of brothers Ashwin and Ashrith, delves into abstract realms, fusing science, mathematics, and the subconscious through a unique aural language. Their sonic confession challenges mature listeners to embrace a subtler, more gratifying musical experience. With a blend of fact and fantasy, Audio Units crafts a space-time parabola using analog waveforms, dense textures, and abnormal reverberations.

Their latest EP Genomatrix creates a similar intricate and electric sonic atmosphere.
