Akasha System

A Florida native, Hunter P. Thompson has been creating ecologically charged electronic music as Akasha System since 2015. Working from various home studios in Oregon and Florida, he has built an expansive catalog of self-released singles, EPs, and full-length albums, in addition to releases on 100% Silk, Elestial Sound, and his own Image Research imprint. Blending analog and synthetic instrumentation, Akasha System’s sound is centered on spacious environments and meditative rhythms. Drawing inspiration from early pioneers of fourth-world music, new age, and Balearic dance culture, the project continues to bridge past and present worlds while pushing the boundaries of house, electronica, and ambient techno. Akasha System has been featured by Pitchfork, Bandcamp, Resident Advisor, NPR, The Line of Best Fit, Tiny Mix Tapes, Loud and Quiet, Dublab, Exclaim!, NTS, Inverted Audio, and The Wire -HGL
