“Insubordinately Sublime” -Inigo Wilkins about recent concerts
Here you find songs, sounds and radiofeatures I arrange and produce myself and some I speak and sing for. Situated between postindustrial, sonic jokes and experimental pop-punk.
***ALBUM: https://jcdecaux.bandcamp.com/album/watch-close ***

I am an artist living and working between London and Berlin and on tour.
Studied post-dramatic theatre and theory/phillosophy: at ATW Gießen by Heiner Goebbels, Felix Kubin u.o. and contemporary dance&choreography at CNSMD Lyon.
I love words and sounds, write for theater and run a theatre company putting up music performances. I work with electronic and analog sounds, homemade instruments, voice(s) and fieldrecording. I direct contemporary classical concerts, live radioplays, music for theater and soundinstallations.
Here on soundcloud you can find some tracks, sketches and experiments.
enjoy listening-

When you click on the songtitles you can see more infos about the pieces.

about the album "Watch Close":
picadilly records writes: "...sounding a little like an Eccentronic Research Council meets Raymond Scott’s Mahattan Research Inc meets Cluster, this is a collection of poetry, electronics and improvisation woven together like a tapestry and drawing you in like a tense but beautifully shot thriller. Clangers-esque theramin sine tones, ethnic percussion, multi-lingual poetry, mangled strings – a plethora of idents from an all manner of subversive stylings. This is brilliant!"

boomcat writes: "...blur the lines between poetry and tone poem, with Manchester’s answer to Peter Pan coaxing out a gauzy spectrum of eccentric small sounds, lopped beats and radiophonic quarks.."

In 2016 my work was played at Tilde Festival for soundart Melbourne, Radio NY, live concert&interview on BBC Wales, concerts at Oriel-Sycharth Wales, New River Studios London, The Others London, Sonic Arts Forum London, Radio futuresound.fm.
speaking at Focus Wales Festival // Digital Innovations Day: Panel 3: THE SPACE RACE: How embracing the digital revolution can give you the edge
