Kerry Leimer has been producing music and experimental sound since the mid- 1970s. One of the early independent Seattle labels, he founded Palace of Lights in late 1979 as a means to release his work and that of others, free of commercial concern. In addition to PoL his recordings are available on the Autumn, Cherry Red, First Terrace, Invisible Inc., Les Giants, Longform Editions, RVNG, and VOD labels. PoL currently represents works by K. Leimer, Marc Barreca, Barreca | Leimer, Steve Peters, Savant, Gregory Taylor, and Three Point Circle. Palace of Lights releases are distributed exclusively by Revolver and represented by First Terrace Publishing. His work is included in the collection of The British Library.

‘Nooten has transcended the anonymity of his former band Xymox and vaulted into the realm of composers like Brian Eno and Peter Gabriel.‘ (Lee Ryan, Ixmae.com)

"With a mix of vocal tracks and instrumentals, Pieter Nooten is a most original and unique artist to emerge in. If you remember the fragile, tunefull and emotive music of Pieter in his collaboration with Michael Brook (..Sleeps With The Fishes.., 4-AD), 'Ourspace', 'Collected', 'Here Is Why' and the upcoming release 'Surround Us' will not let you down. Slow, serene, peaceful, gorgeous, brilliantly..." etc...

My 33 1/3 series book about the Aphex Twin album <i>Selected Ambient Works Volume II</i> was published in 2014. The book was one of the top 5 bestselling titles for the calendar year, and in 2015 was ranked by Pitchfork as one of the "33 best" of the 100-plus books in the 33 1/3 series. It has subsequently been translated into Japanese (2019) and Spanish (2018)

Since 2012 I have moderated the Disquiet Junto group, which began on SoundCloud. More at disquiet.com/junto. 

I've written for Nature, Pitchfork, The Wire, Down Beat, Boing Boing, NewMusicBox, Red Bull Music Academy, Art Practical, the website of The Atlantic, and many other publications. 

I've exhibited sound art at galleries in Los Angeles (Crewest), Manhattan (apex art), and Dubai (DUTAC), and I had a audio-visual installation at the San Jose Museum of Art as part of its 45th anniversary.

And since 1996 I've run the website Disquiet.com about the intersection of sound, art, and technology.

Luftrum is a Danish sound designer, crafting auditory magic since 2008. 

From chasing elusive harmonies on synths to creating innovative Kontakt libraries, his work is used and endorsed by a diverse range of artists, from aspiring bedroom producers to Grammy and Oscar winners. 

Luftrum has collaborated with industry giants like Apple, Steinberg and Native Instruments.

Old synths, cheap sequencers, noisy effects and busted tape machines. Recorded mostly between 1980 and 1988, with higher-fi, newer stuff being fussed over intermittently. Baked. Hazy. Provocative.
