Biography » Garni

Where Music Meets the Cosmos

Hailing from the vibrant city of Melbourne, Australia, I'm Gerald - known to some of you as Garni. My life is a blend of Music and Astronomy, where the pulsating beats of new wave synths harmonise with the silence of the stars.

Musical Journey

I play keyboards, drums, and occasionally strum a guitar. This versatility has been the cornerstone of my musical adventures, leading me to be part of several synth-based Melbourne bands:

- LegRoom
- AquaFuz
- Violator (a Depeche Mode tribute band)

My musical influences come from the sounds of the '80s new wave era. The synthesizer wizardry of Depeche Mode, the avant-garde artistry of Gary Numan, and the emotive power of Kate Bush have all left marks on my style. Other influential artists in my musical journey include:

- Ultravox
- Human League
- Yazoo
- Duran Duran
- David Bowie
- Peter Gabriel
- Björk

Stargazer and Scientist

When I'm not doing music, I turn my gaze skyward. My observatory becomes a portal to the universe, where I spend a significant portion of my life - both as a passionate hobby and a professional pursuit.

As an astronomer, I'm on a quest to uncover some of the secrets of the universe. My specialty lies in the search for supernova remnants, those stellar explosions are incredibly beautiful.

Whether I'm composing a new melody or keeping track of a distant supernova, I'm always exploring the profound connections between sound, light and the human experience.
