Xenotopia by Simon Öggl

Xenotopia by Simon Öggl explores a musical landscape oscillating between affiliation and alienation. The composer and producer’s unique sound language results from the recontextualisation of acoustic and electronic compositional techniques and sounds. By continuously questioning the nature of sound, the distinction between traditional and innovative sound production becomes obsolete. The analogue fades into the digital. “If nature is unjust, change nature!” (Laboria Cuboniks, Xenofeminism: A Politics for Alienation, 0x1A)
