DANIEL ARAYA (SE) have been making electronic music for over 20 years, mostly in the techno and acid house scene. Besides his dance music projects he also does installations, soundscape compositions and works based on field recordings and collage techniques and build custom instruments. Araya works as a Studio Engineer in EMS studio, Stockholm.
For Akusmata Sound Weekend festival Araya is presenting his Acid Ambient concept that is a work based on the live manipulation of four Roland TB-303 bass synthesizers. In this piece they are taken out of their usual dancefloor context with total focus on the very peculiar and alien qualities in their sound, the acidic essence of house music put under a magnifying glass.
