About Aarktica

In the artist’s words: Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail. Some of my earliest musical memories are of my Grandfather singing Sinatra songs, and other old standards. He was a big band singer during WWII, who had regular gigs in North Jersey. He taught me to read music at a very young age. What are your top 3 all-time favorite albums on Apple Music, and why? Why did you choose these three albums in particular? Leonard Cohen, Thanks for the Dance Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds, Ghosteen Steve Roach, Structures From Silence (30th Anniversary Deluxe Remastered Edition) Each of these albums inspires something within me that is deeply emotional, verging on the spiritual. In the case of Steve Roach, it's a composition that I feel actually "breathes" like a living thing. Quite beautiful. Find a song of yours on Apple Music that you love and tell us what makes it special. Tell us why you chose this song. “Glacia” This is the first song I ever released as Aarktica. I had just lost my hearing in one ear and was trying to make sense of the "aquatic" nature of my hearing now. "Glacia" was the first experiment in that, and it led to many more compositions...
