Mononoid

Mononoid are Andy Godderis and Igor Shumlyanskiy. Member of the Traum family. Mononoid is all about connecting art and music evolving into their own unique sound. Their music is a mixture of cinematographic and melodic techno. Andy and Igor started a techhouse production duo in 2006, called Stereo Sandwich, in which they had their first experience producing dance music with each other. After releasing several EP’s, they soon noticed their sound was evolving. They started experimenting with deeper, more profound productions and realized this new sound had grown too far apart from what they were doing before; this was a whole new project altogether. They took the word ‘Mono’ (as in solo) and the word ‘nooit’ (Dutch for never), basically meaning ‘never alone’ and Mononoid was born. In 2011 their music was picked up by Traum Schallplatten, offering them a place in the Traum Family. Soon after they released their first remix for Microtrauma’s “Emilia”, which got great feedback. Their remix of “Echoes Reality” is nothing less than a trip, with a deep grove and great chorus. In May of 2012 their first own EP was released on Traum, ‘Protoplasm’ which has been received brilliantly. Mononoid’s music is influenced by great thinkers and do-ers like Friedrich Nietzsche, Aristotle, Ludwig van Beethoven, Albert Einstein, Marie Curie, Georgy Beregovoy, Mikhail Shcherbatov and many, many others.
