Released under the wings of Alrealon Musique, 'The New Seed' (ALRN041) marks a new beginning in the world of [ówt krì].

'The New Seed' begins where elements old and new clash and light a path towards the future, creating a brave new world. A world where ambiance, melody and noise are bound together in a polyamorist marriage of disharmony and ethereal atmospheres, walking hand in hand.

'The New Seed' features elements of [ówt krì]'s past, but entwines melody and atmosphere with noise and disturbance like never before. Melodies and layers are set free to flow over looped elements and in doing so, allows the music to breath in unison with its maker.

"Experiment's from Frankie´s Lavatory - Trilogy (Soundwave On Duty)" 2012 - 2013

The first part of the experiments are what I like to call a "metal" release, as I studied sounds and textures of distortion while still holding on to the metal aesthetics in the music.

The second part of the experiments are a group of studies in earpiercing and/or mindscrambling noise. Many of the tracks are from a relatively early stage in my career and thus utilizes weird and unconventional solutions, but also a glimpse of what was to come.

The third part of his experiments is a 'contemporary' or art music collection where he tried to create textures while utilizing ideas by different contemporary composers. Polyrythms, but also tape looping and samples play a big deal in the compositions and helped to give insight for his future ordeals.

All funds will be transferred to National Deaf Children's Society in UK to support their mission for deaf children.

"[ówt kri] is conjoining with extraordinary approach to creativity. Usually we could met more ambient/drone works of this Finnish artist but always with experimental touch. One of the newest works of Kenneth is dedicated to wide understood experiment with sound emited by triangle, bass, guitars, synth, percussion to mention a few. "Au-dessus De Ma Compréhension (improvisations and effects)" is fascinating journey through different moods, sound sources, harsh colours - sometimes in tribal way, sometimes a little bit cacophony but still organic, minimal and based on improvisation. The most twirled material on our net label up to date."

Many people appreciate beauty, but aesthetics isn't only about beauty.
It's about when a horrid thing is placed in the midst of beauty.
It's about the complete effect, the bigger picture.
It's a question of the whole...and does it work.
Most think about visual elements when encountering the word aesthetics, but it's more than that.

I do not count myself as a musician, I am a painter, a sculptor, a poet. I am an artist!

I find inspiration in words of poetry and in colored fields of abstract paintings.
I seek for sounds in nature in order to replicate and revamp them for my own paintings and poems that I build from sounds.
My sense of aesthetics does not suit everyone, but in the end I create pictures and feelings that my sanity craves me get out.

My canvas is the airwaves that shiver our eardrums, my words are more often written in notes than letters.
I do not give out everything of my works. I enjoy leaving something to the listener.
Maybe you feel joy or sadness, love or hate...maybe disgust or, in the best of cases, pleasure.
All I hope at the end of the day is that at least one of my works have woken some feelings within you.
