If you came for the song
Start with Velvet Oracle, then Syntax of Paradox. Pop with literary weight, masks with melody.
Sonic Universe — An Archive of Identities
Parallax House is not a label. It is an evolving archive of identities.
Six artistic identities, six lenses, one ongoing investigation. The way Bowie built personas, Pessoa wrote heteronyms, and Chris Marker moved between cameras and pseudonyms — each project in this universe is a different way of asking the same questions about memory, desire, time and survival.

02 — The Identities
Heteronym / Sound & Image — 2023—
Syntax of Paradox
Many masks, one consciousness. Coded identity as the only honest form of survival.
An ongoing investigation into coded identity, queer survival and fragmented selfhood - staged across recordings, photographs and short films. Each release is a different mask worn by the same consciousness.
Embodied Sound / Architecture — 2023—
SOMA
Sound for the body that remembers. Brutalism, breath, and the architecture of feeling.
SOMA is a body of work circling the felt interior - its acoustics, its weight, its insistence on remaining. Music as a study of embodiment, sensation and the rooms our nervous systems carry with us.
Philosophy / Image / Song — 2022—
Velvet Oracle
Philosophy you can dance to, slowly. Rupture, healing, transcendence.
Velvet Oracle is a project of philosophical pop - songs and images that treat heartbreak as epistemology and the body as a site of revelation. Rupture, healing and transcendence in equal measure.
Field Recording / Longing — 2022—
Return State
Music for the long way home. Distance, absence, and the slow gravity of return.
Return State is a project about leaving and coming back - Mediterranean field recordings, slow-burn compositions, and the felt geometry of distance. A study of how absence shapes the rooms we eventually return to.
Dissolution / Long Form — 2023—
Syntax of the Void
Music for the moment the self lets go. Dissolution, surrender, ego death.
Syntax of the Void is the universe's vanishing point - sustained works on dissolution, surrender and the states of consciousness in which the self briefly stops insisting on itself.
Classical Reimagining / Time — 2024—
Syntax of the Eternal
The classical canon overheard from a far room. Timelessness as method.
Syntax of the Eternal reimagines fragments of the classical canon as long, slow drones - chorales overheard from a great distance, baroque lines stretched until they become weather. A study in timelessness and transformation.
03 — Where to Begin
If you came for the room
Start with SOMA, then Syntax of the Eternal. Architecture as instrument, then the canon slowed down to weather.
If you came to disappear
Start with Syntax of the Void, then Return State. Long-form dissolution, then the slow journey back.
