Aperus is an ambient, electronic musician and photographer living in the high desert of northern New Mexico. In addition to his own recordings, he is also known for his work with the highly regarded ambient / electronic duo Remanence. With each recording, Aperus explores new themes and possibilities, combining analog atmospheres, field recordings, electronic experimentalism and photographic artifacts to create a unique audiovisual document. Sounds and images are set up as a feedback loop with photography influencing the music, and music feeding back into the artwork. In this way, each project functions as an experiment in pursuit of new techniques and outcomes.
