RAFAEL ANTON IRISARRI / USA

Rafael Anton Irisarri is an American composer, multi-instrumentalist musician, electronic music producer, interdisciplinary artist and curator living in New York.

Originally based in Seattle, Irisarri creates ambient, drone, modern classical and post-minimalist music. His recordings heavily utilize field recordings, bowed guitars, piano, strings, and electronics, creating dense clouds of blurry, hypnotic sound that often have a mournful, elegiac quality. His use of ostinato phrases taps into minimalist ideals while atmospheric layers of effects suggests a more cinematic quality in his productions. In all, Irisarri’s compositions are deeply emotive and epic to the point of being symphonic.
