Akasha System plays Orlando this week
Earlier this year, the touring tandem of Tampa’s Justin Depth and Tegu dazzled a surprisingly packed room at Stardust — Wave Temples in tow — with healing waves of lush and magical sound. This weekend they return, this time joined by Jacksonville’s Severed+Said.

The night should be a masterclass on how to conjure up soundscapes without being overly in thrall to your gear, an evening of true synth alchemy. Justin Depth was just here about a week ago and went deep into an ambient bathysphere, while still retaining a narrative arc to his set — we expect no less this time.

Tegu, going under the name Akasha System, whips up a quiet storm of surprisingly reflective tropical techno — he is probably one of the most adept practitioners of electronic music in the state.

Severed+Said is on a more cryptic and enigmatic tip, conjuring icy soundtracks to horror films that were never completed, having driven their directors into madness.

8 p.m. Friday, Sept. 6, The Falcon, $15
