Chasys

Chasys is Ariel Schlichter’s ambient, electronic & experimental project. Each release focuses on different techniques and concepts, which range from the fully ambient, field-recording and found sounds based ‘Tunnel Mountain’ to the generative sequenced ‘Decomposition Method’ through the story-driven soundtrack-inspired ‘Neo CABA 2’, the modular experiment ‘Digital Voltage’ and the live-recorded releases ‘Abajo’ & ‘Resume Game’. 

Chasys’ live set incorporates elements from several of these experiences through a system that allows for a constant stream of improvisation and loop manipulation that feedbacks upon itself for a constant, un-repeating soundscape exploration, at times fully ambient, at others verging on techno or on hypnotic sequences. Computers, cassette tapes, custom MIDI controllers and FX pedals all intersect to create an ever changing experience.
