EXPLORING TOGETHER

He is coming from Tbilisi, Georgia and already released an impressive body of work, considering he just publishes music since 2016. Countless EP's and albums, digital, on tape, documenting his feverish creative urge on labels like Not Not Fun Records, Good Morning Tapes, Diffuse Reality, or Vodkast. They cover a comprehensive stylistic range from ambient and downtempo to tribal, house, and techno nuances. A deeper shade of soul, precisely fashioned, growing from different playgrounds of inspiration. He was born into a musical family. As a kid he studied Georgian folk. In his school rock band, he sang, and the guitar was his love. Then electronic music called the tune, and techno hit his heart. In the midst of it all the 26-year-old never lost contact with his spiritual home. “I find deep inspiration in Georgian myths and legends, occultism and esoteric teachings, lost civilizations, earth, unity, truth, information, and the secrets of the universe. These things, to name a few, inspire me daily and help me create the music I make.” Saphileaum reveals.   “Exploring Together”, his debut album for Mule, navigates all these elements through a merry-go-round of gentle driven rhythm zones. Fourth-world spheres, balearic tropes, field recording zones, tropical downbeat, tribal percussions, trancing sounds, balafon hums, mallet airs, hooky house – it’s all there, circling the eavesdropper into a dreamland of melodic undercurrents. “My loops come from tribal and cosmic inspirations. Tribal, as below, and cosmic as above. The combination of these two, is very interesting to me”, he clarifies, while joking “But, to put it super simply, loops are super handy for djing”.  Which brings us to the final promotion of “Exploring Together” - it’s playability. It's vast. Multifunctional. Spiritual. Made for gatherings, were all dance time away. Lost in music actions, only touched by the hand of rhythm and sound. His ten tracks are created for such flashes, wide spreading a musical narration of illuminating durability. “Cosmic, relaxing, fun, tribal, and mystic.”, as Saphileaum declares.
