Intro

Andrey Kiritchenko creates music that feels like watching a high-resolution digital image slowly disintegrate into beautiful, rhythmic pixels. It is a world of micro-sounds where the click of a hard drive or the rustle of a leaf is treated with the same reverence as a piano chord. The sound is often cold and precise, yet it possesses a strange, human warmth that emerges from its very fragility.

What sets Kiritchenko apart is his ability to bridge the gap between academic electroacoustic experimentation and the rhythmic pull of IDM. He uses silence and space as active instruments, allowing tiny melodic fragments to surface and disappear before they can become predictable. It is music of high detail and low volume, rewarding the listener who pays close attention to the microscopic shifts in texture.

Start with 'Interplays, in Between' for a perfect introduction to his melodic-yet-glitchy sensibility. If you prefer something more atmospheric and conceptual, '00.00 (A Suite of the Midnight)' captures a specific, haunting stillness that is perfect for the dead of night.
