About this podcast

Anantakara, a Sanskrit word meaning "rendering boundless", is a Belgium based electro-acoustic project creating and publishing music since 2011. Philippe Wauman, the man behind the project, likes to describe himself as a sound calligrapher: making delicate blends of ambient, electronica, downtempo, ethnic, neo classical and jazz. To make the vastness dance with the innermost is at the heart of his inspiration.
