A distant echo of forgotten places, a soundtrack to the unseen—Katov Syn(th) invites listeners into an immersive world where nostalgia and sonic landscapes intertwine. Whether it’s the rustling of leaves in a deep forest or the hum of a city at dawn, Dominik Novák weaves field recordings into his modular synth compositions, capturing moments that often go unnoticed.
His debut album Tu, kde žijem, žiješ, žijeme (Here, Where I Live, You Live, We Live), released on the Bratislava-based label LOM, is a meditation on change, memory, and the quiet fear of being forgotten.
Beyond his solo work, Novák explores sound across multiple projects, from the genre-bending Božské Soaré to the raw intensity of noise-punk trio Kúpeľ Mysle and the audiovisual project The Blackwood Incident. Whether scoring silent films or composing for theater, his work remains deeply personal—an invitation to listen, reflect, and lose yourself in sound.
