Black Swan

Black Swan is the anonymous project of a New York composer who has worked with tape since his 2010 debut, In 8 Movements. His music is built from handmade tape loops, field recordings and found sounds, layered into long, worn ambient pieces. He has said that he keeps his identity hidden to separate the project from work he had released earlier. Black Swan first issued In 8 Movements himself on CD, cassette and reel-to-reel, and Experimedia later announced an LP version mastered by Taylor Deupree.
