The Beautiful Schizophonic has been played on NTS shows including Kit Records, with Fornarnia first played on 29 November 2015.

Lost somewhere between post-romantic drones and gothic literature, Jorge Mantas is the creative mind behind The Beautiful Schizophonic. He started this project in August 2003, using essentially laptop, minidisc and some esoteric software to process an array of carefully chosen sounds, in order to achieve a sort of multileveled cinema for the ears.

Headphone romanticism for the modern loners or a listening to the world soundscape with poetic hearing?

After all, maybe this is not music, only a place.
