Andrew Turner
Andrew Turner, founder of Deep Life Records (deepliferecords.com ),
has released music on N*Soul Records (LA, CA), PWM Records
(Australia), Giant Squid (SD), subVariant (CHI, IL) and has remixed
and produced tracks since Windows 95's plug-n-play feature was all the
rage. His new project under the alias JahWarrior is inspired by the
artists from the Blood and Fire label from the early 70?s, who used
innovative methods of production using the mixing desk itself to
produce "effect motifs" such as feedback loops, and creatively manual
automation on the sends. Andy is also highly influenced by the likes
of Orb and Autechre, who employ on-the-fly and stochastic,
algorithmic, generative methods in music production. He has performed
at festivals such as LifeLight Festival, Cornerstone Festival, has
hosted a brief residency at Brazil in NOLA, Club Pompeii in Phoenix,
and promoted house parties and club events in the Mid-West when he was
a young'in. Currently he is using max for live, reaktor, processing,
arduino, and open sound control with multi-touch interfaces like the
iPad and monome. His niece Ruth sometimes assists him in the studio
with her new Casio SA-45.
