TELESEEN-NEW TRACK ON MYSPACE!!!!

About Me

Producer and multi-instrumentist Teleseen builds abstract dub/techno soundscapes into complexly layered feilds of ambience that have their roots as much in of post-modern theories of space and structure as they do in the works of artists like Sly and Robbie and Scientist or the rhythms of minimal techno. Beats are woven into densely processed noises and field recordings sourced from origins as diverse as a shortwave radio transmissions, mixer feedback, static and defective studio equipment recorded in the US, to the sounds of street corners everywhere from Crown Heights to Kampala. The music internalizes the connections between natural and manmade modes and patterns of commnication, taking reggae, dub and detroit techno as its rhythmic touchstones. He released his debut long player, "War" in 2007, and has played and djed all over Europe and north America. The Wire described "War" as "a zen slap to the back of the head", pitchfork has called him "an electronic MC Escher.", smother.net described "War" as "Minimalism at its finest and deepest."..Teleseen Live at Hive MicroFest, Liverpool, UK....Visual by Wassarts and Sam Burneverything
