Rafael Anton Irisarri

來自西雅圖的Rafael Anton Irisarri多年來不斷探索學(xué)習(xí)不同的作曲方法、結(jié)構(gòu)、聲音設(shè)計(jì)等，從前述的電子原音手法配上電子與非傳統(tǒng)樂器，到單純以鋼琴、電吉他與合成器創(chuàng)作的曲子，皆散發(fā)濃得化不開的夢幻與憂郁氣息，當(dāng)中鋼琴無疑是主要的表現(xiàn)樂器，卻透過恰如其分，意象豐富的電子／具象聲響，將充滿蒙朧美感的聲響進(jìn)一步推向極致。
Rafael Anton Irisarri is an American composer, multi-instrumentalist and media artist based in Seattle, Washington, mostly associated with the post-classical and ambient genres of electronic music .
He is also known as the main member of shoegaze/techno act The Sight Below (on Ghostly International).
His placid compositions utilize ostinato motifs containing short melodic phrases. Reverb-drenched guitar textures, drones, field recordings, submerged piano notes, strings and minimal electronic counterpoints all contribute and converge equally in the music to create an oceanic experience that can be both epic and subdued. His music has been described by The Wire contributing writer Jefferson Petrey as "a dual perspective close-up focus on the micro textures of rustling static-filled sonic surfaces with the wide-open distant tree lined horizons of sunset at dusk."
