Multi-faceted artificer Lomond Campbell lives deep in the Highlands of Scotland. Although his music is grounded in sound it often incorporates sculpture, engineering, product design and visual art. Using a combination of hardware hacking and industrial manufacturing techniques, Lomond builds his own unique instruments and devices for creating sound which he combines with synths, piano and voice.
Campbell’s music is characterised by its exploratory nature, often blending ambient soundscapes with intricate electronics. Lomond spent his formative years making sound installations with his band and art collective FOUND, winning a BAFTA for creating a moody, narcissistic music machine called Cybraphon, which now resides in the National Museum of Scotland. He then spent five years building his studio, The Lengths. Some of his musical friends have come to record albums there, including King Creosote and Scottish Album of the Year Award winner Kathryn Joseph.
His trilogy ‘LŪP’, ‘Lost Loops’ and ‘Under This Hunger Moon We Fell’ was made with a custom-built tape looping device inspired by the techniques of avant-garde composers William Basinski and Steve Reich. He built a Harmonograph Synthesiser, a scientific device that uses pendulums to create illustrations of mathematical harmony, as well as The Unsung Machine, an experimental interface that introduces aleatoric events into music through the act of entering words on a walnut-finished unit, among others.
Through his inventive instruments and boundary-pushing compositions, Lomond Campbell has solidified his position as a pioneering figure in contemporary experimental music.
