Leptis Magna
Leptis Magna is a project that aims to create paranoia induced soundscapes via seemingly simple structures that act to immerse and unease.
There is a feeling of impending doom within our soundscapes that occasionally manifests and often acts to hide the real danger.
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
I am noise obsessed and I just wanted to portray certain feelings via sound-scapes. The noises I use are mostly organic and are created myself using whatever I think will produce the sound I want. I guess you could say that Leptis Magna is a side-project to other musical things that I do.
The concept of Leptis Magna has existed for a few years but it is only recently I've explored it.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
No.
Your musical influences
I love noise. Merzbow is great and I have a soft spot for Whitehouse. Metal music is probably the one I am most attracted to.
What equipment do you use?
I record organic sounds via dat recorder or even dictaphone. The difference in quality can be effective.
Anything else?
I edit using pro-tools.
