About Soundwalk Collective

A crew of sonic nomads helmed by Stephan Crasneanscki and Simone Merli, Soundwalk Collective creates immersive impressions of places and people -- and how places and people interact. Diligent research and fieldwork yield environmental recordings and found sounds that the collective transforms into varied sonic worlds, both on their own and with collaborators including Patti Smith, Philip Glass, Charlotte Gainsbourg, and Mulatu Astatke. Their first recorded piece, 2008's Kill the Ego, presented New York City's quintessential sounds in shifting, hypnotic layers. In the 2010s, Soundwalk Collective commemorated Nico with 2016's Killer Road and paid homage to the French poets Antonin Artaud, Arthur Rimbaud, and René Daumal with the Perfect Vision trilogy (2019's The Peyote Dance and Mummer Love and 2020's Peradam). Soundwalk Collective continued to evolve with 2022's Lovotic, an exploration of relationships and technology that reflected the boundless possibilities within their work.
