RA: Round. Came to mean the Sun. / The new album 'OS ZA CR AA NC'
Press release by @EVEL@c.im :
"Özcan continues to shape one of the most singular and immersive voices in experimental and glitch-based electronic music. With a deep sensitivity to texture, timbre, and rhythm, his work opens up a sound world that feels both intimate and vast, familiar and otherworldly. There is a quiet intensity in the way his music moves, dark, shifting, and alien in tone, as if it were drawn from a language still waiting to be understood. Rather than simply composing tracks, Özcan builds environments: spacious, unstable, and deeply absorbing spaces that pull the listener inward and reward complete surrender.
This new album extends that vision across 4:44 hours, transforming duration itself into part of the artistic experience. The work unfolds patiently and deliberately, allowing details to surface, dissolve, and reappear in new forms. It is music that does not rush to reveal itself. Instead, it invites close listening, asking for time, attention, and openness, and offering something rare in return: a world that feels alive, evolving, and impossible to fully map in a single listen. In its long-form structure, the album becomes more than a release, it becomes a passage, a space to inhabit, and a testament to Özcan’s ability to turn sonic experimentation into something deeply affecting.
Over the past two years, Özcan has developed a remarkably prolific creative rhythm, steadily expanding both the scale and emotional reach of his work. Each new release feels like another step deeper into a personal and uncompromising sonic language, one defined by atmosphere, abstraction, and a constant search for new emotional textures. This latest album stands as a powerful expression of that trajectory: expansive, immersive, and quietly overwhelming in its scope. It is a record for listeners drawn to music that lingers, unsettles, and transforms with each return."
