Description of Osoroshisa's music Osoroshisa (Japanese for "the amount of terror") is the moniker of Tim Salden from Belgium, who has both a good command of Japanese (speaking and writing) and a sizable collection of obscure vinyl records with synth-music from the seventies and eighties. Perhaps it is this vintage analogue sound that left its traces in his drone inspired sound, as well as the impression of cavernous space. His musical works involve slow motion changes and addition or subtraction of sound layers (where "stock drone" has the tendency of being static and repetitive) and pictures a feeling of loneliness and sadness, the recursion of thoughts and events without an actual resolution.
