ABOUT BRENDAN ANGELIDES
Over the past two decades, Brendan Angelides has traced his own path into a cosmos of dynamic experimental sound. Regarded by NPR’s Bob Boilen as ‘part musician, part magician,’ the Los Angeles-based music producer and composer has cast his atmospheric allure into releases with labels Ninja Tune, Interscope, Warp, Planet Mu and Apollo, as well as his own imprint, Ancestor. The cinematic magnetism of his sound has also led him to compose soundtracks for TV, film and gaming, including the acclaimed 13 Reasons Why (Netflix), Billions (Showtime), and the forthcoming Assassin’s Creed: Mirage (Ubisoft).
With the release of his solo album OXYGEN in 2023, Angelides arrives at a vivid new horizon of his multi-genre output, intertwining his signature electronic palette with an array of orchestral incantations performed by the London Contemporary Orchestra. Across eleven compositions, expansive synth distortions meld with the lucent glow of instrumentation in his most personal work to date — through OXYGEN, Angelides channels the emotional dimensions of becoming a father, bringing twins into the world while processing the diagnosis of his daughter’s disability.
The impulse to translate inner narratives into sound has characterized Angelides’ work since his musical beginnings. Under the former monikers ‘Eskmo’ and ‘Welder’, his non-conformist, hands-on production splintered into two distinct aesthetics. The albums Eskmo (Ninja Tune, 2010) and SOL (Apollo, 2015) emerged from a lineage of precision-made, sound system-focused releases with Planet Mu and Warp, fusing field recordings with intricately modified sound. The ‘Welder’ persona created space for more organic, downtempo and lo-fi experimentation, with EPs presented on Cyberset and Native State alongside self-releases with Ancestor, the imprint established by Angelides in 2008 to nurture and expand his creative autonomy.
In 2013, Angelides moved from San Francisco to Los Angeles where he met a group of like-minded composers and co-founded The Echo Society. Evolving through a shared interest in the potential of orchestral and electronic music, the artist collective showcases original live commissions of sonic and visual art in unexpected locations.
