[ i ] by Insomnior

Bionickle 01 - Insomnior - [ i ]

This marks the beginning—a first step in Bionickle's journey. Hei and Ray emerge as versatile sound designers, producers, and performers who express their creativity through experimental, generative sound design under the alias Insomnior.

The project "Insomnior" represents a collaborative exploration between Hei and Ray, where calculated randomness converges with psychedelic, generative soundscapes deeply rooted in themes of insomnia. Together, they create an atmospheric realm infused with shadowy undertones and a palpable sense of tension, delivering an auditory experience that is both immersive and otherworldly.

[i] serves as an open letter to the self—an introspective communication from inner intelligence. Drawing upon intimate, fragmented sentences that reflect internal thoughts and dialogues, the project curates a deeply narrative shape by sound design inspired by these themes. The result is a mesmerising synthesis—hypnotic in its essence—that fuses ambient textures, layered delays, and complex rhythmic patterns into a singular sonic tapestry. Each composition is intricately woven to balance contrasts: from sparse metallic echoes to warm organic acoustic tones, creating an expansive and infinite soundscape that defies boundaries.

作為 Bionickle 首度發行的EP，[ i ] 標誌著整個廠牌旅程的序幕。Hei 與 Ray 作為兼具多元身份的聲音設計師、製作人及表演者，以 Insomnior 為名，通過實驗性生成聲響設計，展開了一場深度聲音探索之旅。

“Insomnior“ 是 Hei 與 Ray 之間的一場以協作形式共同構建的創作企劃——在此之中，精心設計的生成化聲效與迷幻音景 將不眠的意象深深貫入創作核心深深植根於不眠主題，一同營造出一個瀰漫著幽暗底蘊與緊張氛圍的聲音場域，為聽者帶來身臨其境、超脫現實的聽覺體驗。

如同一封寫給自我的公開信——[ i ] 就像是一場自我對話的側寫。從散亂的思緒到片段化的語彙，並以此汲取為靈感，精心編織出具象且敘事性的聲音設計。最終所呈現出的，是一場帶有催眠氣息的聲響合成——將氛圍質感、層層延遲聲效與複雜節奏序列巧妙地交融，凝聚成獨一無二的聲音紋理。每首作品均經過細膩雕琢，在對比之中尋求微妙平衡：從廣闊的後工業金屬回響到溫潤的有機聲韻，構築出遼闊無垠、廣袤多維的聲音景觀。
