bio

Cikara [FKA euso] is the moniker of Talyn Singh Sandhu, a UK-based multidisciplinary artist, musician and DJ. Their works explore pre-Enlightenment mystics, South Asian folk, wyrd modes of existence and residual cultures in the digital age. By superposing science and mysticism, technology and the occult, ancient past and distant future - Cikara is able to foreground and work within, the fissures that divide these adversaries.

“the only predictable element is a sense of unpredictability: fragile, skewed melodies become suffused by bone-shaking beats; loops present themselves but are rapidly flipped back and forth as if randomised; rhythms stumble and trip as if denied their expected forward motion.” - Mat Smith [Electronic Sound]
