The creative core behind ProMax, AETHR // ProMax and Machina Sacra: connected systems of sound, image, emotion and symbolic storytelling.

PROMAX

Brian Pedersen

Brian Pedersen is the creator behind ProMax, the central force connecting music, visual art, AI-generated imagery and concept-driven storytelling.

ProMax AI represents his visual and graphic work: covers, videos, artist identities and cinematic digital art created through AI, design and personal vision.

AETHR // ProMax is his musical identity, exploring melodic techno, deep house, ambient textures and cinematic electronic sound. AETHR carries the sound, but ProMax is the source behind it.

He is also the main producer and creative architect behind Machina Sacra, an experimental electronic project shaped by ritualistic sound design, symbolic language and the tension between the organic and the artificial.

Across all projects, Brian builds a connected creative universe where sound, image, emotion and symbolism merge into one evolving artistic language.
