Bio

Default Mood is a spoken-word and ambient-electronic duo exploring the quiet tension of modern life. Based in Malmö, Sweden, Arlo and Sienna Thorne build cinematic soundscapes from monotone narration, introspective monologues and sparse, experimental production — often capturing their poetry in the live acoustics of train stations, parks and empty churches. The result is intimate and architectural at once, a hush that turns everyday space into something vast.
