Mikael Tobias is a Canadian musician, composer, producer and sound artist, currently based in Copenhagen, DK. His work explores the liminal space between conscious and unconscious resonance, using sonic architecture as an extension of the material environment. Blending organic instrumentation, digital manipulation and deconstructed elemental sound, Tobias creates an expanse where perception is constantly on the verge: just within grasp while slightly out of reach, simultaneously becoming and dissolving.
His first release as a solo artist, ABSENTIA (Unit Shifter Records, 2017), is an immersive and cinematic album that weaves billowing layers of lap steel guitar, tectonic motion, and cascades of noise into a sonic tapestry of undulating texture and rhythm.
Tobias has performed at renowned festivals including MUTEK (Montreal, CA) and SPOT Festival (Aarhus, DK), and his original music and sound design have been featured internationally in a wide range of media including documentary films, TV series, Augmented Reality artwork, advertising campaigns, art installations, commercial sample packs and onboard airplanes. Tobias is also the co-founder of “practice” (www.noisemeditation.com), a serial investigation of the transcendental properties of sound in the context of group meditation.
