Sandro Tchanturia / Soilance

Sandro Chanturia’s listeners are already familiar with Bcoz and Pleasure hunters, but at The Social Space his work can be experienced and learned even more personally and close when Sandro offered us a new stage set under the pseudonym Soilancemusic created specifically for our space.

As Sandro points out, interacting daily with listeners and constantly offering them new music was a big challenge for him, however with the right mood and concentration, it all became easy. "I like to combine infinite combinations and frequencies in playing music the most. Being a resident of a social space has improved my ability to perceive the surroinding environment.

I believe the artist should adapt the music to all environments and blend the sounds in harmony with the environment, ” says Sandro.
