Wake

For the next entry in the Mesh mix series, we welcome Mesh artist Evan Gildersleeve, who brings an hour-long journey weaving together distorted textures, visceral rhythms, and fragmented melodies, unfolding a world that feels both intimate and expansive.

In Evan's own words, 'Having grown up listening to a lot of heavy, guitar based music, I’m often drawn to artists who channel a kind of unwieldy energy. I’ve also become increasingly fascinated by manipulations of the voice, something that appears in many forms across the hour. This mix is very much representative of the artists I admire whose music has had an undeniable impact on who I am creatively. It’s a selection of tracks that I often return to and continue to resonate deeply'.

Mesh Mix Series 031: Evan Gildersleeve

Evan Gildersleeve is emerging as a distinctive voice in electronic composition. His music explores the intersection between emotive storytelling and immersive sound design, often shining a light on challenging aspects of the human experience.

As a frequent collaborator, Evan has contributed towards projects from some of the most celebrated figures in modern music, including Jónsi of Sigur Rós and the late Jóhann Jóhannsson. 

His glimmering debut Mortal arrived in 2020 through London label Human Worth, offering a gentle meditation on solitude, the conflict of isolation and the transformative impact of nature on a fragile mind.

“Stunning” - Self-Titled

“Mesmerising” - Electronic Groove


“Deeply Evocative” - Aural Aggravation

Evan’s expansive compositions would go on to catch the ear of acclaimed electronic artist Max Cooper, who’d invite the composer to join his venerable Mesh imprint.

Wake arrives March 14th, marking Evan’s most introspective work to date. A deeply personal account, documenting a turbulent period of self-recovery and exploring the power of collective empathy.
