Kirara by Gentoo
Made during the COVID19 holiday isolation using analog and digital synths. I was experiencing a flood of emotions during this period due to personal loss. Having my studio as a safe haven for creativity and expression helped me cope. The warmth of analog equipment including Eurorack gear is oddly comforting. Because of the heat from my studio it's always the warmest part of my home. It's here that I can meditate, work and be myself. I keep it relatively dark because I prefer this kind of womb-like atmosphere--almost like a sensory deprivation tank. For me, my musical instruments become colleagues and friends over time. They each have their own personality and quirks. They don't judge, and they're always willing to work towards creating. I hope that these tracks bring you some comfort and joy.--gentoo

I began making music at an early age, learning guitar from my father who played at local night clubs and lodges. From there I joined high school band where I learned clarinet and alto saxophone until my bad behavior forced me out. In the studio I’m able to comfortably be myself—free to construct intricate worlds of sound based on whatever enters my mind.
