About Philip Jeck
Genre
Electronic
Philip Jeck was an English avant-garde composer and performance artist who utilized antique turntables in order to make haunting audio sculptures as well as ambitious large-scale installations. Using looping devices and a variety of analog and digital effects, he uncovered hidden rhythms in forgotten records, embracing surface noise and distortion. His recordings ranged from jarring rhythmic noise excursions to ghostly, longform drones. He started experimenting with turntables and electronics during the early '80s, and began releasing music on British label Touch in 1995; the label has issued many of his best-known recordings, such as Surf, Stoke, and 7. He collaborated with musicians such as Gavin Bryars, Jah Wobble, Jaki Liebezeit, and Janek Schaefer. His visual artworks and installations have been presented at numerous prestigious galleries. He's also composed music for opera, ballet, and film.
