Ammoncontact is the brainchild of two Los Angeles-based musicians and producers, Carlos Niño and Fabian Ammon Alston. Together, they emerged during the early 2000s as a part of the burgeoning experimental beat scene that interwove elements of hip-hop, jazz, electronic, and world music into cohesive, meditative soundscapes. Ammoncontact’s work is often characterized by its richly textured layers, organic instrumentation, and an emphasis on spiritual and rhythmic interconnectedness.
The duo's discography, including albums like "New Birth," "One In An Infinity Of Ways," and "Sounds Like Everything," reflects their eclectic approach to music-making. Released through the respected Ninja Tune imprint and its subsidiary Plug Research, Ammoncontact's music resonates with a deep curiosity for the universal language of music. With "New Birth," they offered listeners a journey into a tranquil, yet groove-heavy world, while "One In An Infinity Of Ways" encapsulated their ever-expanding explorations into cosmic soul and avant-garde beats. By the time "Sounds Like Everything" hit the shelves, Ammoncontact had cemented their reputation for blurring genre boundaries, creating a sonic experience that is as exploratory as it is soothing. Despite less mainstream recognition, the duo has remained influential among connoisseurs of experimental and underground music, continuing to inspire with their unique, transformative sound.
