Laszlo Hortobagyi

Laszlo Hortobagyi is a Hungarian composer and musician known for his unique blend of traditional Eastern music with modern electronic sounds. He has a deep interest in the music of ancient cultures, particularly from India and the Middle East, which he incorporates into his work. Hortobagyi's music often explores the concept of "Gandharva Veda," a mystical approach to music that he believes connects the ancient and the modern. His recent works, such as "Gandharva Sangeet Paddhati" released in 2020, continue to reflect his fascination with these themes, blending traditional instruments with electronic music to create a sound that is both timeless and contemporary.

In addition to his music, Hortobagyi is also known for his work in sound design and his contributions to the field of ethnomusicology. His albums like "Alterra," "Barokritis 2016," and "Exodoom" showcase his experimental approach, often pushing the boundaries of what is considered traditional music. With releases such as "Entransociety," "Kurtágonals," and "Fomal-Hoot Al-Ganoub," he continues to explore new sonic territories. His other notable works include "Traditional Music Of Amygdala," "Terra Dei," and "The Arcadian Collection," each adding to his reputation as a pioneering figure in the world of music.
