about

"Duality" is the debut release by Lauri Lest, an Estonian electronic music composer. Even though a fully electronic and synth-based creation, very little has been delegated to the machines, as the aim was to focus on live playing and real-time sound manipulation, giving it the humane dynamics and liveliness. It’s a collection of minimalist melodies and atmospheric soundscapes combined into states of dancefulness, melancholy and longing for the depths of the inner worlds. Emotions amplified by warm and deep synth sounds are accompanied by lush echoes and reverbs, noises and bass drum pulses. Nostalgic tones and sounds of the future, at times dystopian, at times hopeful, are blended together.

Each piece on "Duality" was born from personal emotional experiences and has been nurtured by buzzing electricity. It is an ode to introspection in the age of machines, devices and constant strive for progress and success.

The album artwork, created by the Estonian designer Joosep Volk, visually reflects the themes touched in these 6 tracks. Final polish was given to the album by the German mastering engineer Martin Englert at Elektromos Studios.
