ABOUT ME
Aidan Lochrin (they/them) is a sound artist, composer, and experimental musician based in Glasgow, Scotland. Their work is heavily steeped in improvisation and the drone, and through Aidan’s work, they are deeply fascinated with the sonic ontology of place, the disintegration of the self in the modern world, and the reflection of stasis in the environmental. This revolves around producing long-form sonic & visual material and is often realized through the process of live improvisation, to ensure that the idea of temporality survives within any work, involving taking recorded material and running it through ‘disintegration’ processes; to create intense and unique audiovisual textures. In recent years, their practice has increasingly contained themes of the environment and liminality & the self with works often taking a long-form approach; using both time and space to allow both sound and visuals to develop into their own, unique, environments.
Aidan has shared the stage with Cucina Povera, Montreal’s Jason Sharp (Constellation), and mythic synth duo Ultramarine (Realsoon). To date, Aidan has recorded and released upwards of fifteen albums and EPs across various projects, including numerous one-off tracks and pieces, while also producing several experimental short films & audiovisual works.
They have worked with and released music on labels such as:
Musique Moléculaire (Montréal)
Submarine Broadcasting Company (UK)
Dead Hound Records (Edinburgh)
