| Jonathankrisp: General Info
|
| Member Since | 3/11/2006 | | Band Website | jackdawrecordings.com**cookshopmusic.co.uk | | Band Members | Me, my relatively abstract disposition, a bunch of thrift store records, a sampler, a compooter, some analog synthersizers, cups of tea and lots of patience. Im also play laptop, smapler and synth for Patrick Wolf and love doing some remixes and collaborations. My album - No Horse, No Wife, No Moustache is in the shops now. | | Influences | Jonathan Krisp cites his influences as natural history and ornithology, woodland walks and bizarre spontaneous rave scenes. Vintage spoken word recordings, field music from every nook and cranny and off-key decrepit technology are all nice and neatly packaged into a kaleidoscopic dance, disco and electronica formula leading us to conclude that Jonathan Krisp’s music is very gettable indeed, whether sellotaped to an armchair or pumping iron ‘til sunrise. | | Sounds Like | “think Mr Scruff in his best penguin suit, watching the mermaids come to shore....” -DMC Update Magazine...................................................................
“lots of fun” Chris Coco (Blue Room/Radio 1)..................................................

| About Jonathankrisp |
AlBUM RELEASE DATE: 18th JUNE 2007..............................On a very sunny Wednesday morning in January 1978, Jonathan Krisp
was born. Not dissimilar to being raised by wolves, Jonathan was raised
in the country outside the London city limits but close enough to hear the
buzz and dirty frequency of the sprawl................................................................
As he grew up, with an ear to the ground and an antenna to the skies,
he discovered sounds and sampling and during the mid nineties his
aerial tuned in to the mad rave scene and cyberpunk couture.
At this stage the breakdown and rearrangement of both visual and sonic elements that surrounded Mr Krisp’s environment were crucial to his joyness, and so mixing his love for ornithology, electroniky and wave
forms he set forth to create music the way he wanted to hear it...............................................................................................................
To try to describe his plight, Jonathan Krisp creates music in the way
that Ray Mears makes his dinner; purposefully losing his way in a
forest of elements, complex growth systems and organic vegetation
that smells and appears in a plethora of bountiful glory. By discovering
music and sounds, be it from car-boot sales, junk and charity shops
from around the country or even from a nearby wood, then cutting,
chopping and pasting these found elements Jonathan Krisp,
humour-bound and triumphant, makes a huge and rather
tasty meal of it all.
In his own words he once proclaimed he is “trying to impact an
element of humour into what is, at times, repetitive cold electronic
music made by balding, number crunching Moby-dicks in ethnic baggies”.....................................................................................................
Since completing his aural wonderpiece for Cookshop Jonathan Krisp
has assumed the role of chief synths/eclectronics bod in Patrick Wolf’s
live band and has just come off tour form US having just warmed up
for Amy Winehouse........Words courtesy of Zachary Cain
