Ar Ais Arís

Robert Curgenven typically deals with sound as a physical entity - shaped by air, surrounding weather and architecture - location-specific factors which contextualise sound. His work employs complex overtones, deft manipulations of sound pressure amid an unfolding time pressure, using a range of sources from field recordings to pipe organ, feedback and dubplates. His first release in over four years, Ar Ais Arís (back again” in Irish) compiles tracks from limited releases, installations, reworkings and unreleased tracks spanning the last 15 years.
