Violent Raid (M.V. Carbon)

M.V. Carbon uses fragmented field recordings, analog synthesizers, samplers, tape manipulations, and photosensitive oscillators to assimilate structural chaos and decomposition. She creates eerie and unsettling compositions using her voice as an instrument and processing it through tape machines. She plays cello through tape loops and guitar pedals and uses 16mm film imagery as a backdrop for her performances. She is interested in the structural decomposition and fragmentation that occurs within architecture, landscape, human physiology, and perception.

M.V. Carbon is a Brooklyn based musician and composer who sometimes incorporates film into live performances. She studied at The School of the Art Institute of Chicago and has displayed her paintings and installations in galleries and sites in Chicago, New York, and Pittsburgh.

She has collaborated with an array of amazing musicians and is a member of Metalux, Bad Faces, Foamula and the now defunct Bride of No No. She has work released on labels such as 5RC, Load, Hanson, Veglia, No Fun Productions, Nihilist, and Atavistic. Upcoming Release of he new solo album, Sidewalk Scrape, will be coming out on Shinkoyo Records this winter.
