        Known for their dark beats and haunting vocals, electronic duo .gif<\/strong><\/a> has graced stages all over the world with their gritty, immersive soundscapes. The band debuted in 2013 with the EP saudade, followed by their first LP, soma, in 2015. Come 2020, the pair has released their much-awaited followup, HAIL NOTHING.<\/p>\n

        In their writing, the pair often draw from literature, theatre and film. Their diverse practice and multidisciplinary collaborations have taken them from Sundance Film Festival in Utah to the Golden Melody Awards \u91d1\u66f2\u5956 in Taiwan; from writing their own genre-bending theatre production for the M1 Singapore Fringe Festival to setting up sound art installations in London.<\/p>\n

        Having spent the last 6 years of his life dedicating to his craft, Fauxe<\/strong><\/a> continuously strives to push the boundaries of his own musical endeavours. Pushing the format of \u201cFreeform\u201d music, his ideas stream from genres to feelings to colours and sounds. You will never know what to expect from him.<\/p>\n

        Fauxe leaves no sound unturned. It\u2019s not that he does it all \u2013 it\u2019sthat he does it all. The prodigiousness of his output \u2013 which can handily be called \u2018music\u2019 \u2013 is an emanation of the fact that he is not concerned with the flavour\/tenor of the day but of how the abstractions history and future mingle, carouse, cavort and interrogate each other in the listener\u2019s ear.<\/p>\n

        Mantravine<\/strong><\/a> \/\u02c8m\u00e6ntr\u0259va\u026an\/ origin:Universal
        \nA highly conscious and ever-evolving organism composed of interchangeable musical parts; electronic pangs and pings, poetry, mantra and healing song, banging brass-lines and sweet-stringed carnatic guitar. Its psychedelic sound has reached audiences at festivals like Luminate &amp; Twisted Frequency (New Zealand), Atman (Sri Lanka), Phoenix (Hawaii), Gaggalacka (Germany), Nataraja (France), One Music Camp (Japan), F1, Neon Lights (Singapore) and many more. Mantravine continues to defy genre with a variety of techniques like looping, improvisation, audience participation and unexpected combinations of style and frequency. It continues to create new definitions for itself as it grows in further cosmic directions.<\/p>\n
