siriusrising is one of many different monikers of central illinois electronic artist, eric young. his musick is a blend of many different styles and influences. taking equally from techno and electro, hip-hop and glitch-hop, siriusrising has woven an intricate tapestry of lush sounds and atmospheres. put on some headphones and get lost in the soundscapes.
Band/artist history
based in the midwestern us, siriusrising has been djing for almost 7 years and has been producing electronic musick for close to 5. hosting a radio show in champaign, IL for 2 1/2 years called "between zero and one" expanded 23's musickal palette and impressed a love for experimenting with sound. much research and care has been put into this musick, utilizing found sounds, embedded brainwaves, and other psycho-acoustic candy to entrance the listener. *headphones and protective gear should be worn at all times, and this should never be listened to while operating a vehicle.*
Have you performed in front of an audience?
i have been approached to play live on many occasions, and i always accept, although i cannot play my songs live. they require many months of preparation before they can be recorded, and it would be even more difficult to perform them. however, i've done a lot of improv soundscaping at art galleries in chicago, as well as djing at clubs in champaign IL before i moved to CHI. i've had some amazing moments djing though my tastes in music that i spin are not necessarily the same as what i perform. musick is a means to enlightenment for me, and djing the "perfect" set is like doing yoga. it exercises my mind, spirit, and body. i'm drained after a performance.
Your musical influences
my musical influences range from plastikman, neuropolitique, autechre, and coil to the grateful dead and pink floyd. my musick sometimes tries to recreate a "peak experience" and sounds as if one is on drugs.
What equipment do you use?
i am 100% digital for the time being. after a recent theft of EVERYTHING i own, i now produce musick entirely from the computer. i use a number of programs, most notably fl studio and tuareg 2 for the composition, and the editing and mastering is done on adobe audition.
Anything else?
