Kyle Bobby Dunn

Canadian born and Montreal based composer and performer. His work has been described as "compositions that are patience incarnate" and "encourage an emotional response even as its seemingly infinite, creeping swirl and hum threatens to numb. A difficult feat." It is music that often "captures a mood somewhere between sadness and strength; it's the sound of a respite that occurs after having survived an ordeal; it's sound as memory, as memorial.” 
 The austere, tempered tonal shifts featured in many of his compositions subtly echo the work of minimalist forerunners like Morton Feldman and LaMonte Young. At the same time Dunn occasionally intersperses quaint, almost chamberal touches which evoke more traditionally classical sources. In 2019 he released the 3 hour 'From Here to Eternity' album which Pitchork called "contemplative, beatific, serene, sorrowful, perhaps some sublime amalgam of all those things and more." More recently his output has been archived works released in 2020 as Selected Ambient Expansion Pack and the TCR I-IV series. His latest release, 'Nothing Changes if Nothing Changes' found the artist recycling old loops from the Infinite Sadness days into longer more slowed down pieces with a somehow even more melancholy feel than ever before.
