In Bashkir mythology, the black raven is a liminal figure. A messenger between heaven and earth, the world of the living and the world of the departed, death and the return of life.

On August 2, during a ritual live performance, the raven circled above the stone @quray.music turning movement into sound.

Thank you, @hosq.co, for making it possible to bring this ritual to life at Notations: Rituals @notations.hosq — and to everyone who became part of it. #Qurayair #edberens #experementalelektroniklive taken in Hayfilm by @edberens

Sharing some snippets from @edberens live.
.
full set on YT, link in bio.
.
Ed Berens is an experimental musician and live performer exploring the connection between sound, gesture, and space.
He performs with Quray, a spatial instrument driven by movement.
Sound is born in the air, and the performance unfolds at the intersection of electronics, ritual, and industrial atmosphere.
Electronics intertwine with guitar and acoustic instruments, creating a dense, alive, and physical musical environment.

One of the most mind-blowing discoveries at this year's @superbooth_berlin

This is Quray.

No keys.
No strings.
No knobs.

@edberens, the mastermind behind @quray.music, demonstrated us this awesome unit by controlling sound entirely with hand movements in the air. Watching it in person and trying it out felt like seeing and playing some mind-blowing instrument from the future.

Part instrument.
Part performance tool.
Part magic trick.

What I love most is that it doesn't just look futuristic - it encourages a completely different relationship between the musician and sound. The space above the device becomes the instrument itself.

If you're into synths, modular, MIDI controllers, sound design, live performance, experimental instruments or simply weird and wonderful ideas, keep an eye on this one.

The first units are expected soon and the waiting list is already open. Sign up at quray.music now.

Gesprächskonzert — Quray, May 9, 17:30, Kino. @superbooth_berlin

Sound is no longer tied to an interface — it moves into space.
Music is created without touch: movement becomes a source of sound, notes, and modulation in real time.

Quray is a performative spatial instrument where the space above the device becomes a playing field, and gestures become sound.

The performance by Eduard Berens transitions into a demonstration — showing how sound emerges from movement and becomes visible.

Come by.

Sound comes alive through movement.
Hands in the air shape modulation, harmony, and spatial energy in real time.
