An underground electroacoustic artist.
Aho Ssan is the artist name of Paris based Niamké Désiré. After studying graphic design and cinema, he began to compose electronic music and create his own digital instruments. Shortly thereafter he went on to win the Foundation France televi- sion prize for his soundtrack to the film D’Ingha Mago in 2015 and has worked on several projects related to IRCAM. His debut LP «»Simulacrum»» will be released on the 7th of February Via Subtext Recordings. Based on the concept of Jean Baudrillard, it navigates through society’s presentation of inclusivity and equality against my own experience of growing up black in France. Aho Ssan debuted “Simulacrum” at Berlin Atonal 2019.
Aho Ssan creates experimental electronic music blending electroacoustic composition, deconstructed club rhythms, and ambient drone, releasing acclaimed works on Subtext Recordings.
