Uroš Kostić alias overdriven dreams is an ambient composer from Niš, Serbia, seeking to bring the infinite sound fields of phantasmagoric dreams to life. In the process, he relies primarily on experimentation in the field of post-minimalism, drone, and ambient by working with 4-track cassette tape loops, field recordings, and reel-to-reel tape loops. His pieces are characterized by deep ostinato lines and meandering lush textures permeated with string instruments, pianos, and choirs.
His first album “symphony // of // murmurings” was released by the Dutch label Slow Tone Collages in collaboration with one of the most prolific experimental artists Lawrence English as a mastering engineer. The second album was released in April 2024, "four trembles on an imagined occasion". It was a result of intensive exploration of sound and the tools used to create it (four- channel cassette loops, a sine wave generator, a handful of pedals, and various instruments with the aid of contact microphones).
