about

At the beginning of a recording session at Figure8 Recording in Brooklyn, New York, Zierk gathered a pallet of sounds from a collection of synthesizers. But what was initially meant to be a diverse sampling quickly became focused on a single patch. By opening and closing the filter of a Juno 60, Zierk isolated the low-end frequencies of the arpeggiating synth-patch, creating the fixed beating that serves as the backing for “Life in Cue.” Layering percussion and patches from a Korg DW8000, “Life in Cue” creates a sequence of upward inflections, as if posing a question.

“Life in Cue” is the opening track of Endless Gesture, Zierk’s forthcoming album, which will be released by Atlantic Rhythms this summer.

Evan Zierk is a composer and audio system technician with interests in stochasticism in algorithmic music, as well as modes of listening and utilitarian music. His work has varied from chamber music to fixed media, multi-channel system design, installation, and performance. His first published release, Drifting/Bending, was released in 2017 by Atlantic Rhythms.
