Rewire presents The Silver Thread, a new collaboration between Shackleton, Wacław Zimpel, Siddhartha Belmannu, and Giridhar Udupa. Shackleton is a producer whose work has moved from the UK dubstep scene of the mid-2000s into urban-ritual electronics that draw on dub, minimalism, and devotional music traditions; Zimpel is a composer, clarinetist, multi-instrumentalist whose practice spans jazz, improvisation, and folk-trance forms; Belmannu is a Hindustani classical vocalist; and Udupa is a percussionist known for his mastery of the ghatam, a clay pot instrument central to South Indian classical music. Together, The Silver Thread merges urban-ritual electronics with live instrumentation from Hindustani and Carnatic classical traditions and outer-limits raga interpretations. Bass synthesis, clarinet, voice, and ghatam create a trance-like sound that moves between electronica, spiritual jazz, and Indian classical forms. With a debut release planned for spring on label AD93, The Silver Thread bring their music to Rewire 2026, featuring live visuals from artist Pedro Maia, who works with 16mm and 8mm film to create analogue-digital hybrid cinema experiences.
