Zuwe

Zuwe is a musician from Amsterdam, The Netherlands. He has been producing and releasing electronic music under a variety of aliases over the last ten years.

The project Zuwe started in 2019 after discovering the vast possibilities for experimentation in the vaporwave scene. Zuwe’s music is primarily centered around ambient soundscapes and field recordings. His goal is to create immersive sound environments that allow the listener to experience a world built by the music. The first project released under the Zuwe alias “Endless” is an ambient tribute to summer in the Japanese countryside and was released on Seikomart in early 2020.

The album “SH40” is the first release from Zuwe on European label Hiraeth Records, released in 2022, and follows the journey of a man to a human settlement outside of Earth. This unabashedly sci-fi premise is undertaken with all the precision and patience of a well thought-out novel.
