Musical artist

Θ (theta) is a musician originating from Drama, Greece, living in Tromsø, Northern Norway, since 2007.[1] Θ has music influences stretching from DIY hardcore punk to classic experimental musicians like Xenakis. Θ soundtracks dystopic landscapes [2] with dark ambient[3] and drone[4] sounds using noise sources, probabilistic sequencing and some times melodies. His dark[5] and reflective[6] music draws inspiration from interactions on the threshold between nature and technology. Θ conducts sound experiments using metaphysics, biometrics[7] and various sound sources, such as hardware synthesizers, field recordings, recordings of acoustic elements of daily life, such as construction areas, awkward basements and kitchen ware. The result requires focused attention, in order that the listener experiences how "minimalistic cave sounds" manipulate perception.[8]

Θ is half of the duo metatag[9] and has been collaborating with Tau Cross, WAR//PLAGUE, Mitsumidai and others. Θ is signed with High North Music.[10]
