Ancient Psychic Triple Hyper Octopus is a new trio uniting Alex Bonney (Leverton Fox, Brass Mask), Will Glaser (Sly and the Family Drone, World Sanguine Report) and Isambard Khroustaliov (Icarus, Fiium Shaarrk). Their debut album; ‘Put Emojis On My Grave’ was released on the 23rd May 2025.
The trio’s music has been described as “devotional music; music which seeks solace in the myths, mysticism and prophecies of a ‘high dimensional’ AI ‘renaissance’, whilst eschewing the hyperreal aesthetics and stereotypical narratives of platform capitalism’s endless franchising and repackaging … (the) music is no longer ‘composed’ in the tradition that informed the rise of both classical ‘Art Music’ and ‘Pop Music’ of the 20th century, but, adopting the language of AI’s deep learning failures and glitches, (the) music is ‘hallucinated’ via successive iterations of ‘emergent improvisation’
