AYMANTIA is my first release as something more personal. Not just music — more like a memo to my future self.
At that point I had three projects running. But the one that started everything is Vecraft — the project that showed me what’s actually possible when you just experiment without fear. When I was building Vecraft, I was deep into Buckethead and Maudlin of the Well. The avant-garde approach hit different. Buckethead especially — he showed me that anything is possible with a guitar. No rules, no genre ceiling. And whether the stuff I release under Vecraft is metal or something else entirely, I still see that same touch in it. That experimental DNA is just… there.
When I look back at my releases I see milestones. Each one is a snapshot — what I was into, what I was feeling, what I was going through…
Aymantia is exactly that.
Leaving a body map. Discovering new things. Documenting myself.
I’ll be honest — Aymantia was short. I didn’t give it enough time because I was really itching to start the bigger Aymantium project. But here’s the thing: I’m planning to release Aymantia every year. Keeping it as a living memorial, Aymantia 1, 2, 3… each one a time capsule of wherever I am musically and personally at that moment.
These are the things that were feeding me during that time:
This stuff lives inside Aymantia whether you hear it directly or not. It’s the soil it grew from.
More to come. Aymantia is just getting started.
