Aki Onda
A Method To Its Messiness

This piece of music was written as a response to the question "Why Films?"" By incorporating Onda’s own handheld camera into his compositions, and then manipulating light in post, the answer is found here. Using a simple circular synthesizer and a drum pad as background, Onda creates a shimmering gloom that is suffused with the same kind of deep, sunken voices that haunt late night films. The piece closes with the vaguely menacing presence of a motorik bicycle, a constant and essential element to Onda’s vision.
