ORIGINS
Afterimage Assembly began as a response to fast consumption and disposable listening. It grew from a desire to create work that rewards patience—projects meant to be revisited rather than rushed, experienced rather than skimmed.
THE ASSEMBLY
Each release is assembled from multiple elements: sound design, compositional structure, visual identity, and pacing. Albums are treated as complete forms, with sequencing and atmosphere given as much weight as individual tracks.
EXPANDED MEDIA
Visuals play an essential role within Afterimage Assembly. Artwork, motion, and environment are not promotional tools, but integral parts of the experience—extending the music beyond sound into a wider sensory space.
ABOUT AFTERIMAGE ASSEMBLY
Jonathan Kendall
Founder · Composer · Creative Director
Afterimage Assembly is an independent electronic label exploring sound, image, and atmosphere as a single evolving form. Founded by Jonathan Kendall, the project focuses on music that lingers—works designed not for immediate impact, but for resonance over time.
Releases span instrumental electronics, experimental structures, and visual-driven concepts, often blurring the line between album, environment, and artwork. Each project is treated as a self-contained world, shaped by mood, texture, and motion rather than genre boundaries.
Afterimage Assembly exists in the space between attention and memory—where sound leaves a trace, and silence becomes part of the composition.
