Geo Aghinea (b. 2001, Romania) is a London-based experimental producer, composer, and vocalist who designs immersive sonic experiences where raw electronic textures meet ethereal, siren vocals.


Their sound is shaped by a deep connection to their upbringing - rooted in microtonal and heritage-based sounds - while pulsing with the energy of brutalist underground queer scenes in post-communist Eastern Europe. Growing up listening to their grandmother’s chants, Geo developed a hauntingly distinct vocal style that is present in their productions.


Geo also brings a unique perspective to sound itself. As a musician with severe hearing loss, their reliance on hearing aids isn’t a limitation but a tool - reshaping their understanding of frequency, space, and texture. This heightened awareness has influenced both their production choices and vocal delivery, adding a tactile, almost physical quality to their sound.


Geo’s genre-defying work is an extension of their identity - fluid, boundary-pushing, and transformative. This is evident in their debut left-field EP, I’ll Hand You A Hand (2023), and with Gynodioecious (2025) coming soon, Geo is set to push sonic experimentation even further.

I’ll Hand You A Hand is a 5-track avant-garde and experimental Extended Play.

I produced I’ll Hand You A Hand during my first years of residing in London. This body of work was self-produced with a pair of worn out hearing aids that lacked mid and low frequency information. For this reason, the tracks feature synthetic & metallic sounds, which I naturally gravited towards at the time.

Compared to my newer works, it touches on more intimate topics and experiences.

Excerpts from notes taken at the time of writing the I’ll Hand You A Hand as follows:

I am in the process of questioning how to accept that everything that surrounds me moves on while fighting the need to feel grounded for one second.

It is heart wrenching to know that people I met once and deeply connected with will leave and I will remain in the same place, reminiscing the memories, hoping they’ll sometime come back. I craved continuity and life gave me transience.

Gynodioecious is an ?-track electronic experimental Extended Play that explores the intersections of IDM, deconstructed club and avant-pop.

Blending dark, yet ethereal synths with chest-pounding bass, Gynodioecious unfolds universal experiences such as clubbing, sexuality, friends, self-identity (& reclaiming space) and presents them with a thought-provoking twist. I wrote and produced this EP looking outward rather than inward, which was a nice progression from my previous works.

It’s one of my most ambitious projects up-to-date and I can’t wait to share it.
