I make experimental electronic music — ambient, chilled, downtempo, and abstract sounds that sit somewhere between calm and slightly unsettled. It started as a teenager when I first heard Jean-Michel Jarre’s Oxygene. That record pulled me in, and I’ve been exploring electronic music ever since. I became obsessed with strange, futuristic sounds and spent years experimenting with synthesizers, drum machines, and sequencers. I even built a few simple electronic instruments and computer-controlled devices in my bedroom. In my early twenties I began releasing tracks that feel atmospheric and dreamlike. The influences run from the eerie experiments of the BBC Radiophonic Workshop to pioneers like Brian Eno, Kraftwerk, Tangerine Dream, and Jarre, along with more recent artists such as Jon Hopkins, Tycho, and Ólafur Arnalds. These days I work almost entirely in the box with virtual synths and effects, though I still like digging into weird, obscure textures and unexpected sonic territories.
