About Rafael Anton Irisarri
Artist Biography
Rafael Anton Irisarri is an American artist, producer, and mastering engineer who composes ambient, drone, and post-minimalist music. His recordings heavily utilize field recordings, bowed guitars, strings, and electronics, creating dense clouds of blurry, hypnotic sound that often have a mournful, elegiac quality. Since 2007, Irisarri has co-curated numerous experimental music festivals and concerts, including Seattle's Decibel Festival and Substrata, as well as events related to the Ghostly International label. He has created live visuals for Lusine, Solvent, Simon Scott, and several other artists. He also records shoegaze-influenced ambient techno as the Sight Below, and collaborates with dream pop singer/songwriter Benoît Pioulard under the name Orcas. His solo discography includes releases on Room40 (such as 2013's The Unintentional Sea), Umor Rex (2017's The Shameless Years LP and several cassettes), and Dais Records (2020's Peripeteia). His own Black Knoll Editions has issued releases such as 2024's Façadisms.
