About Me

Music Available at CDBaby and iTunes

collapse
A dark, exotic fever dream vision of low-fi pounding beats, ethereal synthesizers, earthquake bass, crushed twitching noise, and Kasten's desperate, entrancing voice. Imagine Skinny Puppy, Gary Numan and Boards of Canada having drinks with Portishead.
Collapse is lacunae's second full-length work.

love me
"love me" is a collage of driving beats, ethereal synth melodies and aggressive noise built around Kasten's distant, longing voice. She confides in the listener, lost in the manufactured world as her comprehension flickers like a dying fluorescent light. The album runs through the most harrowing parts of losing one's self to love, and reminds us why we always go back.

The members of lacunae have never met.
lacunae's music falls somewhere between industrial and ambient with a strong nod toward trip hop. Dark sliding synth melodies with noise-laden low-fi groove beats and beautifully spoken female vocals. Broken love songs for broken robots.
Kasten is currently located in Philadelphia, PA, Arson in Concord, NH, and A. Peluso in Columbus, OH.
Much of lacunae's sound can be attributed to their distinct songwriting process. The recordings grow from isolation. Kasten's voice travels to Arson. Arson's arrangements travel to A. A. recompiles the material for the listener.
