SONOMETER is a collaboration project of Gildas Brugaro aka SRVTR (Rennes) and Sascha Stadlmeier aka EMERGE (Augsburg).
It's based on source sounds by SRVTR reworked by EMERGE first and then reworked by SRVTR again and so on. All further treatments used mostly the method of recycling without adding any new sounds. Apart from their current solo works, which are more in the vein of dark techno (SRVTR) and abstract musique concrète (EMERGE), SONOMETER's music evokes dark atmospheres consistent of rough ambient noise.
In 2013, gildas brugaro began to only mix his own tracks under the name SRVTR (servator) to keep on the observatör work.
his palette goes to ambient/noise & industrial downbeat to a dark techno.
many aka or collaborations (the messenger, bunker palace, dark engineer…)
EMERGE is inspired by the minimalist traditions of experimentalism and non-academic noise music, focusing on generating sound structures intended to make atmospheres emerge that are open to each listener’s own interpretation. The choice of sound sources used is usually very limited. In most cases only rudiments of the original sounds are recognizable due to various treatments. EMERGE also uses and recycles raw material from a variety of artists/musicians.
