Avant-garde sound artist Aki Onda presents In The Depth Of Illusion: A Soundtrack For Nervous Magic Lantern, a deeply immersive work born from his decade-long collaboration with essential avant-garde filmmaker Ken Jacobs. Released on the acclaimed experimental label Room40, this 2025 LP draws on Onda's signature cassette-based soundscapes to create a cinematic world that hovers between memory and apparition.
The album unfolds as a genuine soundtrack to Jacobs' Nervous Magic Lantern performances, weaving together New York soundscapes, tape hiss, and patient, sprawling compositions that feel like documents of a living, breathing city refracted through an impossible lens. Anchored by an extended version of "Brooklyn Bridge" that stretches past twenty minutes, this is a record for listeners drawn to experimental electronic music that carries real emotional and artistic weight.
