mitchell, first and foremost, is a musician. he has been composing emotive
electronic music for about three years. influenced by artists and musicians
ranging from steve reich to autechre, james joyce to john coltrane, his
music is concerned with piquing all the senses. he is currently studying
at concordia university, majoring in interdisciplinary studies - a program
that encourages students to focus on the sometimes obscured and overlooked
spaces between media, disciplines and ideas. he has drawn many lines for
himself in practice and principle. he doesn't sample any other musicians'
work - he generates his own samples or pulls them from field recordings,
he doesn't use presets of any kind. essentially, his sounds are his own.
having studied classicalmusic as well as jazz, he is also concerned with
composition. his new independently produced cd, intr verse, is an exploration
in all of the above. it is as much a series of 99 prints, or objets d'art,
as it is an album of music. it is his first release.
mitchell will be giving an in store performance at noize music (3697
st. laurent) on dec.
3rd at 4:00 p.m. with naw (a.k.a. neil wiernik, sensoria, audi sensi,
t.o.). as well, he will be
performing at a party called intr_version later that night (a pseudo-launch
for the cd) with
daniel lui (chair recordings, t.o.) and again with naw. for information
