aleph om is the electroacoustic project of Alexander Brown, inspired by fascinations with decaying tapes, modular synthesis, and psychedelic, metaphysical aspects of all sound processes. Evolving from Detroit’s underground scene, Brown merges low-fidelity cassette techniques, analog sound design, and cosmic narrative to explore impermanence and spiritual oneness.

Since his self-produced debut aleph om (2020) and consequent follow-up Hindsight Is (2020), Brown has continued to expand the project’s scope through immersive electroacoustic and collaborative works, including the expansive Planes of Broken Mirrors (2024) and the archival compilation Venerable Extremities I–III (2025).

As a touring musician with The Blackstar Experience and co-founder of Ephemeral Waveform, Brown’s creative output bridges analog decay and modern synthesis. His forthcoming concept album ‘Oumuamua’ (2025) traces the cosmic odyssey of an interstellar interloper—an audio meditation on the guttural darkness of imperceivable craters, the transience and trajectory of terrene spheres, and other fringe worlds.

The project’s name unites the Hebrew “א” (Aleph) and the Hindu mantra “ॐ” (Om), symbolizing the oneness of the beginning and the divinity of the all.
