ABOUT THE ARTIST
ERIK KLINGA
Erik Klinga, b.1991 in Sandviken, is a drummer and composer. Klinga is known from the bands Simian Ghost, Light Vibes and Horse Show and has played in multiple projects as a drummer including acts such as Solen, Dolce and Mi von Ahn.
He has a studio based practice and creates electronic music with an interest in developing work with elements connected to spatiality, melody and harmony in repetition based form structures. Driven by curiosity in finding new sound relations he’s mainly working with synthesized and acoustic sound together with field recordings. A substantial part of his work involves utilizing modular synthesis in Buchla format, on which he composes and performs live. His music moves between ambient and more multilayered and rhythmically driven pieces.
