Bio
Underground Spiritual Game is a Brooklyn-based trio led by bassist Ran Livneh. The group explores the interplay between tone and atmosphere, drawing inspiration from diverse musical forms, natural soundscapes, and abstraction.
Their music draws deeply from the rich musical roots of Ethiopia and the Middle East, weaving elements of Afrobeat and Free Jazz into original compositions and minimalistic interpretations, resulting in a unique, dusty meditative repertoire.
The unique combination of instruments creates a soundscape that dissolves the boundary between performer and listener, inviting personal reflection while fostering a sense of collective immersion and engagement. With this foundation, each performance by Underground Spiritual Game evolves into a shared journey, where the seamless interplay of sound and groove resonates deeply.
Underground Spiritual Game released their debut LP Of Time on Vibromonk Records in September 2025, offering a full-on groove and a meditative analog listening experience.
