Bodyvision w Gavilán Rayna Russom EP1: A Space for Rage. NYC based artist, DJ and Voluminous Arts label founder Gavilán Rayna Russom inaugurates her new Bodyvision series on Mutant Radio Tbilisi with a two hour mix dedicated to sound as a channel for rage. Braiding together noise, ambient, experimental and dance floor sounds, Rayna explores DJ’ing as a grief processing technology.
Sound lives in the body. Rhythm is a key to hidden memories and visions.
Gavilán Rayna Russom’s visionary career in music reverberates expansively at the multiple intersections between experimental and dance floor sounds. Rayna’s creative arc began when she was still in high school - DJing dance parties and distributing home-produced drone and noise tapes - and has carried her through a long-standing relationship with New York’s DFA Records, critically acclaimed releases for LIES, Nation, Curle, LuxRec and Ecstatic Recordings as well as the founding of her own label Voluminous Arts.
