Silky Raven Artist Bio

Due to its black color, the raven was often a harbinger of death in Western culture, brought to you in conjunction with dark deeds. But according to Native American medicine teachings, light comes out of darkness and the color black is associated with the source of all energy, creating new realities – with the raven as its messenger. He proclaims the need to make drastic changes in your attitude and perception.

During the past decade, electronic music has constantly pushed and sometimes crushed the borders of its genre. Silky Raven, namely Jakob Seidensticker and Henrik Raabe, have dedicated their work to this process with projects like The Havana Boys, Seidensticker/Salour and Wareika. Now, after 20 years of joint forces for music, their new project “Silky Raven“ can refer to a compository-improvisatory diversification of a remarkably varied oeuvre.

The musical outcome might at first seem gloomy, but as the raven shows us, entering the dark can bring the light. With each musical inward journey, we develop the ability to create more light, and therefore the Silky Raven encourages us to be prepared for the unexpected. Read more on Last.fm.
