Kuantum presents Silau Maya

Hi. I'm Azarikh Amran. I’m a motion graphics artist, specializing in 2d and 3d animation. Source of inspiration mostly come from sci-fi art, cyberpunk, retro-futuristic and anything within the same genre. I have also ventured into vj-ing and do a little bit of that on the side.

Seeing how an object in motion interact perfectly with sound gives me ultimate satisfaction. I like seeing animated graphics and experiment by interpreting them differently. Creating animated objects with different perspectives each give different meanings and that’s why it’s so unique. I am inspired everyday and this has driven me to keep my passion alive.

I do 3d projects on a daily basis. But when I say daily, I mean producing 2 to 3 images a week, depending on my free time.

He has always been a musician in love & addicted to music when he was 15 by forming a band as a drummer, drawing influence from Joy Division. He emerged on the scene when he debuted his self released 3 tracks EP 'Planetarian' in 2018 followed by his debut edit on Jakarta's Dekadenz Records for Themes For Divided Tribes Vol.3 a year after. Over the past few years he has done work with various international platforms including Calypso (Mexico), Belly Dance Service (Austria), Soil (Valencia), Nein (UK) & Playground (Barcelona).

His abandoning of boundaries and restrictions led him to refuse sticking to any particular scene or genre which takes in everything from Post-punk to Psychedelic & experimental electronica. Theonly rule is to push the boundaries of conventional electronic music exploring new directions while never losing sight of his core passions – playing music & sharing forward thinking visions.

Having experienced the regional night scene in the urban jungle of KL post the non apocalyptic Y2k to the rave scene of the tropical jungles of Kho Phangan and onward into the unorthodox mayhem of the European psy-trance festival scene.

It is this collective accumulation of cosmic experiences and learnings that has turned Odd into the masterful dance floor destroyer cum storyteller that he is.
