FRKTL / Spöken
From Atom
Started in January 2010, FRKTL is the solo electronic project of a twenty-five year old South London based audiovisual artist and experimental composer who creates output through signal processing, field recording, and live instrumental sampling.
« This week we feature a track by one of our old time friends and contributors, Sarah Badr. Sarah has previously written a review of Telefon Tel Aviv‘s Immolate Yourself. I knew that Sarah was a designer, artist, and a writer but I had no idea that she was also a musician, composing pieces under the moniker FRKTL. So you can imagine my surprise when I listened to her latest contribution on Sound Cloud, titled Spöken, and even bigger excitement when I totally fell in love with the track! On this piece you can hear “Cairene Street field recording and overdubbed improv on a full-size electric violin with whammy pedal.” Wow, this piece is sublime. Totally blown away by this random finding, hope you enjoy. — Headphone Commute »
