ANONYMEYE (bris)
Anonymeye, the nom de plume of Andrew Tuttle from Brisbane, Australia, reimagines post-Federation Australia and secessionist micronation movements within a search engine generated abstract musical Esperanto. Utilising electronic and acoustic instrumentation including acoustic guitar, signal processing, synthesisers, and effects units, Tuttle's creative output under the Anonymeye guise straddles and blurs boundaries between improvisation and composition, experimentation and song-form, rural landscapes and urban constructions and melody and dissonance.

TEXTILE AUDIO
Between ambient electronica and classical music lies Textile Audio, a project by operatic mezzo soprano and electronic musician Eve Klein. Working with scores, field recordings, and operatic-pop composite vocals to weave rich melodic soundscapes and textures this music is unashamedly romantic.
