Murmurations

Simian Mobile Disco

A breathtaking collaboration with the Deep Throat Choir. Human voices and modular synths merge into organic, shimmering patterns of emergent electronic beauty.

It's like a human choir became a modular synth and started singing about the patterns of birds.

A fluid, emergent sense of wonder that feels both biologically ancient and technologically advanced.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The Deep Throat Choir's voices interlocking like a human synthesizer on Caught in a Wave.
The transition into Gliders where the rhythmic tension dissolves into pure, weightless vocal suspension.
The way the modular synth pulses mimic the erratic but unified movement of a bird swarm in A Perfect Swarm.
