https://harshnoisemusic.com/ESKIMOOMIN -
eskimoomin makes music using beats & loops from garageband; she is truly grateful to the people who made the original beats & loops. she also uses samples of sounds recorded in the woods and at the beach and in the park and in the living room after dark, as well as using the noise of keyboards, clap-clap-clapping, & bashed-about-bits-&-pieces. she lives and works in a mountain on the moon and visits leeds whenever the moon is blue in order to pick up the essential-shopping and any new (un)technologies available at low low prices. she only likes other humans when they’re dancing or being genuinely thoughtful (& accepting their tiny little place IN the cosmos as opposed to thinking they actually ARE the cosmos), hence her living on the moon. she has three
e.ps and two
l.ps available on bandcamp for nowt, & has a collection of videos & visuals to accompany her beats & loops & beats & loops and sounds- these can be seen on youtube. simply search ‘eskimoomin’ on the internet, it will say ‘’do you mean ‘eskimo women’?’’
