hundredmillionthousand releases atmospheric new album ‘Attention Span’

The mastermind behind hundredmillionthousand is moniker Noel Fanaeian, a Persian-Filipino composer based in Canada. hundredmillionthousand has earned his stripes by studying under renowned composer Laurel Halo, touring all over the world. With this experience, it’s no wonder how he’s managed to craft a unique and signature sound.

hundredmillionthousand showcases his signature sound on his latest offering ‘Attention Span.’ Tracks such as “Seven Ft. Xuan Rong” are sure to entice you in with droning instrumentation and softly – penned, infectious vocal lines. The grand sounding “Five” features heavenly stacked vocals alongside a minimal but impactful backdrop.

Fanaeian’s unique sound and aesthetic can be seen married together in the music video for the album’s title track which can be found here.

Noel speaks further about the release:  “I used the sounds of the most intimate and emotional human moments and computerised them into indistinguishable sounds and then made them into music. My intent was to comment and work through my own struggles with connecting in the digital age. In today’s day and age there is no way to discuss the current state of human relationships and intimacy without acknowledging how technology has moulded how we interact with each other. The internet and online dating platforms are perpetuating feelings of attraction, infatuation, connection, confusion, disconnection and little losses. It’s created a disposable cycle of human intimacy. I wanted to capture this feeling and cycle in sound. I noticed experiential electronic music has an obsession with the newest technology; I wanted to create music using a process that explores the effect of techphillic culture to study intimate human connection in the modern age.”

hundredmillionthousand is like nothing you’ve heard before. With such a unique offering, we can’t wait to see what’s next for the composer and where he can take it.

hundredmillionthousand is embarking on a 9 date European tour this September/October, with performances in Berlin, Helsinki, Barcelona, Skopje, Porto, Novi Sad, Krakow, and more.
