The Aircraft’s music can be found in various playlists and is in great demand on TikTok, where the track Aeria went viral. Dive into the soundscapes of Aeria capturing the essence of Aircraft’s ethereal synths and haunting melodies. Aircraft is a one-man band that of the Ukrainian musician Daniel Merkulov. It was founded back in 2011 in Kyiv. Aircraft started off with a mixture of minimal shoegaze and dream pop. Being simple but sophisticated, Aircraft’s music was created with a drum machine, guitar, and vocal only. In 2013 the debut album Ultralow was released. Aircraft started touring with the album and performed at a number of music fests all over Ukraine. The next album, Aeria , came out in 2015. It was marked with a drift toward the synthpop sound. Back in the summer of 2022, Aircraft started touring abroad for the first time and performed in Berlin, Copenhagen, and at the Swedish fest Kalabalik. The lo-fi sound is combined with gentle vocals, sometimes reminiscent of early Depeche Mode, warm and brooding guitar motifs and the classic sound of drum machines and synthesizers of back days, echoe Cocteau Twins and A.R. Kane. From light irony of John Maus, the vibe can switch to the depressive and gothic like This Mortal Coil, revealing the most hidden places of Aircraft's creativity, which can best be heard in the latest album @Evidence (2024).
