The project is based on Askari’s concept of Creative Doom: an acoustic exploration of the structures, energies, and tensions of extreme musical forms. Influenced by contemporary improvisation, noise, and experimental music, dense, multi-layered soundscapes emerge—without stylistic references, but with comparable intensity, rhythmic complexity, and physical presence.
