[microsound-announce] Justin Varis - Mountains

[David Newman]

THE ARTIST
Justin Varis (b.Cincinnati, OH 1979) is an American musician/composer living
in Los Angeles. Drawing on the rich history of musique concrète while most
recently exploring minimal single instrument composition, his music is one
of contrast and contradiction. Abstract tendencies conjoin with basic
intimate melodies. Disruptive sequencing is utilized alongside loops and
repeating patterns. Meticulous audio editing creates calculated timing while
improvised passages lend expressive mistakes. Ultimately working towards
merging his audio with like-minded video and film artists, he is determined
to create a body of work that explores the non-linear narrative while
achieving accessibility to the greatest number of listeners. 
 
The work of Justin Varis has featured on a number of compilations and his
solo work (aka Claudia) was released on Frozen Elephants Music & Audiobulb
Records. In addition to continuously developing/performing live sets, he is
at present working on a number of collaborative projects set for release in
the near future.
