Biography:

KWA is an abstract artist specializing in UltraSonic Illuminations. His performances cut through the matrix of thought control propagated by Mass Media. KWA lays down The Sonic Law forcing a paradigm shift in consciousness.

Press:

"...unlike any familiar sound known to mankind."
Matthew Forss - Music Journalist for Inside World Music

"...the art of KWA resembles the visual work of Marcel Duchamp and Andy Warhol."
Stafford Davis - Curator I/O\I (eyeoeye.com)

“...such a sonic environment pulls the rug from under the listener, leaving them aurally off-balance..."”
Jason Randall Smith - Contributing Writer for Impose Magazine

"...an experiment in sound...a work of art."
Ian Wise - Freelance Writer and Music Journalist

"...the ultimate abstraction of human perception through noise."
Matthew Forss - Music Journalist for Inside World Music

"The combined effect is like that of a Rothko painting, where shapes and colors blend and fade into a cohesive and unified whole."
Stafford Davis - Curator I/O\I (eyeoeye.com)

"...his works float freely through time and space...to lift you out of your own reality and forcing you to deal with an alternate one."
Jason Randall Smith - Contributing Writer for Impose Magazine

"...similar to beefed up Sleep Drones, or another Hex Schmitt Trigger like circuit."
Ian Wise - Freelance Music Journalist

"KWA is a U.S.-based multimedia wizard that explores and pushes the boundaries of the human listening experience."
Matthew Forss - Music Journalist for Inside World Music

"...a protrusive “k” used in the same hard line Germanic way that Kafka applied it."
Stafford Davis - Curator I/O\I (eyeoeye.com)

"KWA is an artist that rails against the conventional elements used in music, be it electronic or otherwise."
Jason Randall Smith - Contributing Writer for Impose Magazine

"The artist’s use of low tones and stereo separation is reminiscent of a technique pioneered by the late Robert Monroe in a system called Hemi-Sync®."
Ian Wise - Freelance Writer and Music Journalist

"Like the brave Dadaists of yesteryear..."
Stafford Davis - Curator I/O\I (eyeoeye.com)

"In more words, a defiant affirmation of originality often posed as a question..."
Stafford Davis - Curator I/O\I (eyeoeye.com)
