Jake Muir

Jake Muir is an innovative sound artist and composer based in Los Angeles, known for his immersive approach to ambient music and experimental sound collage. Drawing on a diverse array of influences ranging from shoegaze and drone to field recordings and digital manipulation, Muir crafts lush, texturally rich compositions that evoke both the intimacy of memory and the vastness of landscape. His practice often involves transforming familiar sounds—such as snippets from pop music or environmental recordings—into ethereal, dreamlike atmospheres, transcending their original context.

Muir’s critically acclaimed releases, including "Lady's Mantle" and "The Hum of Your Veiled Voice," have been issued on esteemed labels like sferic and Touch, earning him recognition within contemporary electronic and avant-garde communities. With a background in sound design and fine art, Muir’s work frequently explores themes of nostalgia, decay, and the mutable nature of perception, resulting in recordings that are as emotionally resonant as they are sonically adventurous.
