Idlefonir + ca
Hesam Ohadi, known as Idlefon, is an Iranian Canadian computer musician hailing from Tehran, born in 1987. Currently based in Calgary, Canada. Idlefon's music blends ambient, IDM, industrial, and shoegaze elements. Notable for their faded vocals, deep pads, and harsh rhythms, Idlefon is a co-founder of the experimental art label BITROT and SET Music Festival.
With releases on Tympanik Audio and n5MD, Idlefon has performed in cities like Calgary, Vancouver, Berlin, and Copenhagen. Their latest liveset "Aesthetics of Survival" showcases a shift towards more lyrical and vocal-focused compositions within the realms of shoegaze-inspired vocals and IDM/industrial music. Influenced by early Warp Records IDM, n5MD releases, and Shoegaze music, Idlefon's sound is a unique fusion of these genres.
