about Cyberphobe
|
Artist description Cyberphobe is an experimental unit that uses lo-fi techniques with op-shop electronics to blend electronic drone, pulse, noise, found sound, samples, plunder, and free-form keyboards. I'm currently working on drone and pulse based pieces using an old Esoniq SQ-80 coupled to a guitar effects unit, and I'm also experimenting with found sound collages, using a 4-track to blend material lifted from various media (CDs, radio, whatever) as well as sounds captured on a small portable cassette recorder. Haven't much finished product to describe yet, just a few fragments involving animal sounds, human voice, electronics, and found sounds. |
Music style
Experimental electronica and atmospheric soundscapes.
Musical influences
Trout Mask Replica, Robert Wyatt, Terry Riley and Steve Reich, early Frank Zappa, David Cunningham, Robert Fripp and Brian Eno, Throbbing Gristle, Laurie Anderson, Negativland, John Oswald and all the sonic outlaws on the Droplift project, Spike Jones, Velvet Underground with John Cale, and Jack Black.
Artist history
First started making music in 1999 as Severed Head (the name of a small political zine I was writing at the time), using a kid's Casio keyboard and a distortion pedal into a stereo cassette deck, eventually producing a locally burned CD-R of one-track improvisations based heavily on the keyboard's rhythm section. Last year I aquired a four track and better keyboard (with a handbook straight out of Mission Control) and have been struggling with them ever since. It would be all be much easier if I was a musician, I suspect.
