Mahakit Mahaniranon is a Thai composer-performer who plays piano and modular synthesizer. His multifaceted practice combines performance, composition, improvisation, sound of traditional Thai music and electroacoustic elements into an eclectic, individual musical expression.

The intensity of his work and his creative process has earned him many opportunities as a solo performer. His works have also been performed abroad, including in Singapore, Malaysia, Sweden, Italy, Switzerland, Germany, France, and the United Kingdom. He used to be an Artist in Residence 2023, 2024 and 2025 at Elektronmusikstudion EMS, Stockholm, Sweden.

"TWILIGHT PHENOMENA"
Composition for Thai Woodwind, Piano, Drum, Electronics and Visual Art
A performance of classical music that is unusual through the sound of Electroacoustic and Thai traditional instruments.”
The story is told through the atmosphere of various sound forms that are like being trapped in a trance through the sounds that occur which would like to communicate to the listener about the feeling of suffering and discomfort while hearing. Even a negative feeling arises in their mind, it will be faded away at the end of the sound. It's no different from life that sometimes hurts, but if you can get through it, you will grow, develop and have more experiences to learn things further more. The beginning of the sound will be a disturbing sensation until the sound changes to a more familiar to the listener and eventually to a very relaxing melody more and more.
