Elsmer

Bustling sounds made in small spaces.

 

Elsmer is an improvisation-based project focussing on ambient, drone and noise musics. Elsmer collaborates with local musicians in the North-East to produce visceral, embodied noise balanced with introspective, durational textures.

Elsmer releases are available for purchase/download (pay what you feel) on Bandcamp. Albums such as this is the sound of a small room and under the overpass, into the rain feature guitar improvisations, while from the face of stone and back feature durational, drone-based organ improvisations replete with spaces for reflection, drifting harmonies, and interference beats.

Upcoming Elsmer performances are listed on the Performances page.​
