Andrew Duke has been composing, producing, remixing and
performing music since 1987, plus scoring and sound-designing
for film, television, video, web, theatre and radio.
His music is consistently referred to by the media and
listeners alike as continuously presenting a unique and
distinct sound.
In 2003 he was nominated for Album of the Year (Electronica) at
the Canadian Independent Music Awards for his "Sprung" album
(Bip-Hop, France).
In 2005 two PSAs he scored for the Racism: Stop It! campaign
were recognized with national awards.
He has been commissioned for 55+ remixes (for artists such as
Aaliyah, Pink Floyd, Chicks On Speed, Heavy Meadows, David
Kristian, etc.) and has licensed 125+ tracks to compilations.
He regularly tours his solo live PA and his jazz/improv group,
the Andrew Duke Ensemble.
DukeÆs sound design and music has been used on TV channels
including BBC Channel 4, Discovery Science, CBC, CTV, Outdoor
Life Network and Much Music.
Based in Halifax (Nova Scotia, Canada) he operates the
Cognition Audioworks label and webzine.
"From The Deep End" includes selected excerpts from recordings
taken at four different live shows Andrew played In Toronto,
Kingston, Halifax and Montreal between 2002 and 2004.
The twentyfour untitled tracks combined on this double-disc set
are all mixed together to create a complex and organic sonic
continuum.
Duke's explorations on "From The Deep End" range from classic
clicks'n'cuts to dissonant ambiences passing through minimal
vocations and subtle variations.
Sparse beats appear each now and then, but most of the rhythm
contained in these tracks remains hidden, mostly on a
subliminal level, in the intertwining elements that form them.
Ghostly voices, microbial factors, unknown chain reactions,
abstract atmospheres, lowercase ambushes, vinylized spectrums,
creaking noises, sensible frequencies, mental soundscapes,
glitch tensions and post-Techno plots: all ingredients in
Duke's recipe combine to make "From the Deep End" a nice summa
of his musical output (...and of digital music in general...)
rather than just a simple live document.
