Tristan Arp playfully blends the framework of bass and ambient music with elastic sound design, asymmetrical rhythms, and pointillistic micro-percussion. A shapeshifter across strains of biologic club environs and surrealist soundscapes, Tristan Arp is a producer, DJ, and composer born in suburban Detroit and based in London. His leftfield bass records for 3024, SLINK, Unknown Untitled, Banoffee Pies and his own Human Pitch label explore the elasticity of rhythm and sound design, while his albums a pool, a portal and Sculpturegardening for Wisdom Teeth offer hyper-detailed, generative worlds, merging cello with modular synthesis and spoken word. Polyrhythmic freakouts and adventurous blends propel his varicolored DJ sets, while his live sets weave hand-drumming with improvised electronics across club and ambient iterations. He also creates multi-channel sound installations and site-specific works for museums and galleries.
