MiddleGround

MiddleGround is an experimental electronic duo hailing from the United Kingdom, renowned for seamlessly blending glitchy soundscapes, pulsing rhythms, and haunting melodic fragments. Formed in 2017 by producers Isla Turner and Rowan Holt, MiddleGround quickly carved their niche in the UK’s vibrant underground scene, drawing inspiration from both the stark industrial edges of their native Manchester and the lush, atmospheric textures of British ambient music. Their debut EP, "Fractured Echoes," released in 2019, garnered critical acclaim for its inventive fusion of field recordings and modular synthesis, earning them a dedicated following among fans of avant-garde and leftfield music.

The pair’s live performances are celebrated for their immersive visuals and improvisational energy, reflecting a commitment to pushing the sonic boundaries of electronic music while maintaining a strong emotional core. With subsequent releases such as "Between the Blinds" and collaborations across visual art and dance, MiddleGround continues to challenge conventional genre boundaries, positioning themselves at the forefront of the UK’s experimental music landscape.
