ENGLISH
Claire Rousay's music zeroes in on personal emotions and the minutiae of everyday life - voicemails, haptics, environmental recordings, stopwatches, whispers and conversations -- exploding their significance.
Based in San Antonio, Texas, Claire's acute assemblages of sound are both a diaristic portal into the life of their creator, and an exercise in dressing and undressing the bare audio field using compositional threads that feel loosely entangled, yet fastidiously woven.
A prolific run of recordings since 2020, culminating in this year's 'everything perfect is already here' (Shelter Press), has seen Claire come closer than most modern sound-makers to aesthetically nailing the temperament of a world turned inward.
Meet Clare Rousay for a an artist talk moderated by RMC teacher Rune Kielsgaard.
Claire Rousay is in Copenhagen to perform a concert on 12th of April as part of the 20_14 concert series at Copenhagen Distillery. Ticketlink to event here.
