Austrian Richard Eigner writes spook-inducing ambient tracks that ransack your cranium’s music shelves for boxes marked ‘jazz’, ‘minimal’ and ‘electronica’. His hypnotic passages won Austria’s Elektronikland Award (for experimental electronics) in 2005 and will soon be showcased on his record label Wald-Entertainment. A multimedia whiz, session drummer and animator, other projects include the soundtrack for dance piece ‘Urgent Appetite’ by Canadian choreographer Laura Kappel, music clips for I-Wolf and Mika, and six months spent as Patrick Pulsinger's ‘studio slave’, helping on remixes and building a sound library. Richard also reckons he can distinguish the different saw-waves from Nord Modular and N.I. Reaktor, and there’s no way we’re calling him a liar.
