Ear Meal with Devin Sarno

Devin Sarno

Over the better part of a decade, this music has evolved from high volume feedback experimentation to a sonic examination of the meditative properties of low-end drone music. Influenced in part by artists such as: Phill Niblock, Deep Listening Band & Arvo Pärt as well as everyday ambience & silence, the music of Devin Sarno has been described as resonant, deply seductive, foreboding and genuinely beautiful.
