Echomorph

Echomorph, a genre-defying ensemble with Michael Thieke (clarinet), Ira Hadžić (gong and field-recordings), Cedrik Fermont (gong and electronics), and Klaus Janek (double bass and electronics), blends organic and electronic textures to create a unique sonic landscape. Their music explores resonance, timbre, and the interplay between acoustic and digital sounds, with the clarinet’s fluid tones merging with the gongs’ vibrations and electronics adding tension. Slow-evolving compositions give each element room to breathe, with the double bass grounding the sound while the gongs and clarinet take unexpected directions. Their immersive, experimental style challenges traditional composition, blending influences from avant-garde, minimalist, and ambient music, yet resists easy categorization.
