About Levente

I hail from Backa Topola, a quaint town in the erstwhile Yugoslavia, now situated in northern Serbia, approximately 50 km (35 miles) from the Hungarian border.

During my early teenage years, I found myself immersed in the vibrant world of rock ‘n’ roll. Initially drawn to the sounds of local bands like Leb i Sol, Bijelo Dugme, and Riblja Corba in Yugoslavia, my musical horizons expanded as I began to appreciate global influences. My playlist evolved to include iconic bands such as Deep Purple, Black Sabbath, Led Zeppelin, Yes, Genesis, as well as more eclectic choices like The Can, Dead Can Dance, The Cure, Bauhaus, Front242, Test Dept, Coil and Einsturzende Neubauten.

However, the pivotal moment that revolutionized my understanding and perception of music, shaping my aspirations in the musical realm, came from diverse and independent sources. Arnold Schoenberg’s orchestral compositions, the evocative soundtrack of “2001: Space Odyssey,” Tangerine Dream’s transcendent “Zeit” and the mesmerizing Jan Garbarek Group’s “African Pepperbird,” along with Iannis Xenakis’ enigmatic “Persepolis,” all played a role in profoundly influencing my musical journey. Each piece stood out for its intriguing and mysterious qualities, sparking a deep excitement that fueled my desire to both create and engage with such captivating sounds.

Crafting the perfect blend of instruments and sounds is an art in itself, demanding the same creative essence required for selecting the right chord, composing a beautiful melody, or penning engaging lyrics. Throughout history, individuals have delved into the experimentation of combining instruments, a practice extending back centuries, if not millennia. Some familiar instrument pairings we recognize today have organically evolved over the course of hundreds of years, while others resulted from necessity, accident, or a spontaneous, eccentric idea.

Since the inception of my sonic journey in 2019, my primary objective has been to immerse myself in the realm of sounds, understanding their nuances and origins. With an unwavering dedication to exploration, I strive to unearth my distinctive voice—a unique sonic signature. This pursuit involves continuous experimentation, learning, and the harmonious fusion of various instruments. Additionally, I keenly observe, record, and incorporate the ambient noise and sonic textures that surround me, contributing to the rich tapestry of my sonic endeavors.
