 International Anthem Recording Co

Ariel Kalma is a musician who blends rhythms, melodies, and grooves from various cultures to create unique and captivating music. He incorporates ambient atmospheres, modal music, native instruments, and nature sounds into his compositions. With a skillful mix of traditional sounds and modern arrangements, Ariel also utilizes electronica and special effects in his work. His ability to play circular breathing on winds and didgeridoo adds an extra layer of depth to his performances. The result is a synthesis of East and West, classical and jazzy elements that effortlessly dissolve contradictions.

In August 2022, Australia-based, French born fourth-world music legend Ariel Kalma was invited to participate in BBC Radio 3’s Late Junction series of special collaborations. The program pairs artists that have not previously collaborated to create new music together. Kalma was quick to suggest working together with two musicians whom he has never met – the International Anthem recording artists Jeremiah Chiu and Marta Sofia Honer, whose critically-acclaimed duo debut Recordings from the Åland Islands had been released just a few months earlier. Kalma sent an invitation to Chiu and Honer, which was received with great enthusiasm. Chiu had been a fan of Kalma’s work for a long time, even citing him as a major influence on his approach to electronic music composition. After meeting their goal of 20 minutes worth of music for the program (which was four pieces total), the three musicians were satisfied in what they would present, and sent along their work to the producers of Late Junction; but simultaneously they felt like there was much more to be said, more work to be done. There were several pieces that they had nearly completed that weren’t sent for inclusion in the radio program, and there were many ideas for refining those that had. The three musicians collectively agreed that they would continue work together and try to push the music further. The Closest Thing to Silence is the result of their efforts to take the collaboration further.&nbsp;
