About: Alien worlds, dystopian/utopian deep futures, otherworldly forces, ancient Gods, malevolent AIs, these are the auditory evocations woven by Annelid: an experimental audio/visual project employing modular synthesizers and generative/algorithmic techniques to weave dark ambient soundscapes and visions heavily inspired by science fiction and horror themes. "Annelid" as a moniker is inspired by the cult-classic sci-fi horror rpg System Shock 2, as a nod to one of the most quintessential hive-mind organisms in fiction.

About: Over the years spent along the various paths of sound synthesis, many names have changed, many genres have been produced, many lives have been lived, but the important thing is that now uncertainty makes us discover new lands. Today the primary activity is sound design and electronic compositions with a cinematic approach to try to disconnect the listener from reality for a while. A bit of meditation immersed in sound, out of respect for Silence. -Tym Frost Links: https://tymfrost.bandcamp.com/follow_me https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCknEXeA0LLn0L3qc9nJdf9w?sub_confirmation=1 https://www.facebook.com/tymfrost https://www.instagram.com/tymfrost.music/ https://soundcloud.com/tymfrost/tracks
