Oslo-born electronic artist André Bratten has consistently evolved and searched for new sounds with each successive release. On his first album, 2013's Be a Man You Ant, he created cosmic disco with analog instruments similar to Norwegian peers Lindstrøm, Todd Terje, and Prins Thomas, but with more of a German minimal techno influence. Throughout the following decades, his music became more experimental, with 2015's Gode being a more personal work influenced by IDM and ambient, 2019's Pax Americana embracing electro, and 2020's Silvester consisting of dark, abstract soundscapes. 2022's Picture Music was a turn toward more melodic, meditative material.
