While this kind of music is, of course, strictly underground, macabro has managed to find his audience in Latvia and neighbouring countries; he has also played several livesets in Latvia, Lithuania and Belarus, under the wing of latvian "elektronik noiz movement" STURM, which has been one of the most active subculture music movements in Latvia in the last 10 years.

It all began with the ordinary singing-songwriting, but the interest in electronic music soon took over. At first starting with harsher noisy sounds, the music became calmer and warmer as the time went on.

macabro experiments with field recordings and guitar sounds, whilst adding lots of synthesized drones and other samples, arranging it all into sophisticated sounding tracks with rather complex structure. Some of the newer works might even be considered as guitar ambient, although guitar sound is fairly modified, sometimes to an unrecognizable degree.

The latest album Envelopes draws influences from both (neo-)classical music and modern electronic glitch-sound material.
