Zakè (often styled as zakè or zake), is an enigmatic figure within the ambient music landscape, known for his deeply textured and often emotionally charged soundscapes that evoke an ethereal sense of place and time. While details on zakè's personal history and background are scarce, his work speaks volumes, painting aural canvases that combine minimalism with lush orchestral arrangements and field recordings, often infused with a sense of melancholy and introspection.

With a prolific output, zakè has cultivated a dedicated following through a series of compelling releases. His work "Demain, dès l'aube" conjures the feeling of a reflective, new dawn, while "Heather In Bloom" evokes a serene, natural beauty. "Faraway," and the "Polymorph EP" explore the textures and nuances of distant soundscapes, while releases like "Ash," "Lines," and the "Orchestral Tape Studies II" further zakè's exploration into the sublime, melding drone with neoclassical elements. His "Lament for Strings" series is a poignant testament to his ability to channel emotion through strings, and the "Live at the Gothic Chapel" offers a glimpse into the power of his music in a live setting, showcasing his talent for creating immersive experiences through sound. Each release builds on zakè's reputation as a purveyor of contemplative and immersive sonic worlds, making him a cherished name among aficionados of ambient and experimental music.
