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.
Searching for sound incorporating acoustic elements, synthesizer and digital processes, his works reject stylistic boundaries and seek their own identity mixing ambient, minimalism, noise, free improvisation, Thai traditional, contemporary classical music and experimental electronica.

Various ensembles have included his compositions in their repertoire, and they are being performed continuously.
