Murmer
Real Name:
Patrick McGinley
Profile:
An American born composer, radio, and theatre artist, Murmer has lived and worked in Europe since 1996. Amongst releases for various labels, he has composed works for many theatre performances, and produces "Framework", a fortnightly field recording based radio on London’s Resonance FM. His work concentrates on the framing of sounds from our environment which normally pass through our ears unnoticed and unremarked, but which out of context become unrecognisable, alien and extraordinary: crackling charcoal, a squeaking escalator, a buzzing insect, or one’s own breath.
