Ian William Craig

Canadian vocalist and composer known for experimental works that blend processed voice, tape/analog techniques and ambient textures.

Known for blending operatic/solo voice with tape and analog processing techniques; released the album Red Sun Through Smoke (2020).

The review describes Red Sun Through Smoke as an unclassifiable, dreamlike collection of twelve tracks that juxtapose processed voice, piano fragments and silences. The reviewer highlights a kaleidoscopic structure that feels unified despite diverse elements. The overall mood is muffled yet sharp, between wakefulness and sleep.

For:Listeners of experimental, ambient and vocal-based sound art; fans of processed voice and contemplative music.
