claire rousay

Claire Rousay transforms the mundane sounds of daily life—voicemails, traffic, household movements—into deeply emotional soundscapes that feel radically intimate. Her music evokes something we might be missing- details, humanness, nuance, longing and nostalgia for depth (attention). It’s a mix of field recordings, often combined with experimental pop elements, a kind of film score that is haunting and sometimes chilling- a ton of atmosphere. ‘A little death’ is intended to be a trilogy with a heavenly touch and a softer focus. "(...)You can kind of tell how much desperation or how much joy is in each of the recordings. As that trilogy has gone on, I have been trying to mellow out some of those highs and lows using more musical material, so a little death is probably just a reflection of the highs and lows in life."
