Sonik Chamber is based on its progressive and innovative music approach formed by electronic / experimental music pioneers such as Luigi Russolo, Pierre Schaeffer, John Cage, Karlheinz Stockhausen and İlhan Mimaroğlu.

In the 9th event of the series, drummer Ryosuke Kiyasu from Japan and Kerem Ergener from Istanbul are invited.
