josh russell's (austin tx) work lies in the gully between academic electro-acoustic and ambient. inspired by the soft incidental noises that one normally filters out he distills these sounds down and composes with them. by manipulating previously recorded sounds live as well as amplifying miniature sound environments he tries to give performances that keep the listener engaged and present in the moment.

he also runs the record label bremsstrahlung recordings, www.lowercasesound.com.
