   About Marvin Ayres

Purchase Marvin Ayres music from: http:​/​/​marvinayres.​bandcamp.​com/​

Marvin Ayres is a composer, cellist, pianist and violinist.

"like some of Eno's best work, the atmospheres Ayres creates are also compelling pieces of music that can dominate and transport." All About Jazz

Ayres has composed and recorded a diverse selection of minimalist albums, incorporating spatial soundscapes and psycho acoustics and latterly for 5.1 Surround Sound, as well as produced a number of film soundtracks.

"A serious and thoughtful composer." The Wire

A founding member of The Government, Ayres also made solo contributions to bands and artists, notably, Culture Club, Simply Red and Frankie Goes to Hollywood. He was signed to the avant-garde label Mille Plateaux as composer/producer, and released two minimalist albums, Cellosphere and Neptune to critical acclaim.

Excerpts of these works have been performed live in an array of forums such as: London's 'Festival of Electonica,' (with Groove Armada's Patrick Dawes).

His reputation as producer and performer led Jaki Liebezeit (ex CAN), to invite him to re-mix and tour with his band Club off Chaos. Ayres is commissioned by Einsturzende Neubauten's electronica music publishers Freibank.

Marvin Ayres has also collaborated with many visual artists on A/V installations, which have been exhibited in major galleries in Europe and the U.S. including the ICA's commission for him to compose and produce their first ever DVD exhibition. The two works resulting from this were Sensory and Cycle which became the DVD Sensory which is on exhibition at The Tate Modern.

His ongoing project with Sonja Kristina (Curved Air) is called Mask.
The second album 'Technopia', produced by Marvin will be released on r.a.r.e/Repertoire records in Jan 2010.

In March 2009 he began composing/recording a surround sound orchestral suite titled 'Harmogram' which was completed in November with an accompanying tv documentary film following and exploring the making of this project.

"As the devil labours by all means to keep out other things that are good, so to keep out of the heart as much as in him lies, the thoughts of passing from this life into another world; for he knows if he can but keep them from the serious thoughts of death, he shall the more easily keep them in their sins."- John Bunyan (puritan divine)
