Jonas Meyer has been behind a curious variety of projects, each taking a different approach to the world of electronica. Collaborating with visual artists, jazz musicians and acoustic performers, Meyer’s work has taken him through genres both well established and strikingly experimental. With audio-visual trio ‘Cordial’ he has delved into consciousness warping synth, but the tracks produced with groups ‘Unland’ and ‘Frames’ welcome a rich element of acoustic sound, playing with guitar riffs and real-time orchestral input.

Now, Myer has begun to make more decisive moves towards solo work, having released ‘Konfusion’; a debut album with Welsh record label Serein in 2019. Within this electro-acoustic album Myer obsesses over the details of minute samples, before pulling back to wider, all-encompassing waves of synthesiser.

Myer’s most recent activity is a continuation of his main solo project, ‘Holographic Field’, where he focuses on ambient electronica. With an EP back in 2012 and an album in 2015, the release of ‘Illuminate’ on February 14th of this year marks the third collection under this alias.

Containing ten tracks of ambience charged with strange, experimental energy, Illuminate is at times emotionally soothing and elsewhere disconcerting. With our sample track ‘Gravity’ field recordings blur with static, and synths quietly shine
