- SHINKEI
Shinkei likes to play with the perception of sound, moving on the edge of audibility, exploring the empty spaces between sounds.
Usually a new project is developed with each release to experiment with different, unusual sound sources: computer simulated brainwaves, recordings of biological signals, or the snow falling over a microphone...
shinkei compositions are best listened to on headphones, or in a quiet dark space.
David Sani (Shinkei) was born in 1968 in the heart of Tuscany, Siena. In 2000 he started Microsuoni, mail-order and distribution of sound-art, focused mainly on minimalism in all its forms. After the encounter with composer Luigi Turra in 2008, they founded the Koyuki label, devoted to publish lowercase and minimal sound compositions in limited edition cds or digital downloads. The debut of the label coincided with the first Shinkei cd release "Binaural Beats" a split with canadian artist Philip Lemieux. Other recent works are "Biostatics" for the Transparent Radiation series on Bremsstrahlung, "Hidamari|Metrics" a split release with FOURM, and the first collaboration with Turra, YU for the austrian NonVisualObjects label.
