〰️ 𝐌𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐚𝐥 𝐒𝐮𝐫𝐟𝐢𝐧𝐠 is a unique musical project that invites listeners into a deep, multidimensional sonic experience. At its core lies a fusion of analog warmth and digital precision, creating a distinctive soundscape that evolves and transforms.
The heart of the project consists of analog sound sources. Reel-to-reel tape recorders capture and process sounds in a way that cannot be perfectly replicated in the digital domain. Analog synthesizers deliver deep, pulsating textures, while the baritone saxophone introduces the presence of a live, organic instrument that breathes with its own rhythm. This hybrid formula, enriched with electronic processing, shapes an immersive sonic environment, distributed through a custom-designed 8-channel sound system that enables precise spatial placement of each sound.
𝙈𝙚𝙣𝙩𝙖𝙡 𝙎𝙪𝙧𝙛𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙞𝙨 𝙣𝙤𝙩 𝙟𝙪𝙨𝙩 𝙖 𝙘𝙤𝙣𝙘𝙚𝙧𝙩 – 𝙞𝙩 𝙞𝙨 𝙖 𝙇𝙞𝙨𝙩𝙚𝙣𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙍𝙞𝙩𝙪𝙖𝙡. Participants, in an intimate group, experience the music while lying on comfortable mats, wrapped in blankets. This arrangement encourages complete immersion in the sonic journey, allowing the body to relax and the mind to drift freely.
Each session lasts exactly 77 minutes – a carefully chosen duration that allows for deep immersion without overwhelming the listener’s perception. The music of Mental Surfing is mysterious and introspective, balancing on the edge of ambient, minimalism, and experimental electronics, with baritone saxophone lines that whisper rather than speak. Its slow, hypnotic rhythms and evolving textures encourage reflection and foster meditation.
