andrew eigus was born in riga in 1973. selffish materialised in 2002. the name selffish denotes a paradigm shift in andrew's life. the music selffish produced was slower and more refined than eigus's earlier works. selffish fuses his melodies with minimal beats to create original and organic ambient sounds and an ethereal listening experience. to add another layer to his music, he incorporates field recordings from within and outside the city of riga, grand piano recordings, as well as other acoustic instruments and the human voice.

New Release from Section 27 Netlabel [S27-028] ADVIRUZ - NIGHTLY SOUNDS (IDM, Glitch, Experimental)
Adviruz is the artist pseudonym of Istanbul’s Pinar Gurcan, whose growing passion for sound is translated through her music. Since an early age, she has been listening and mimicking opera singers, writing melodies, songs and poems in which she spoke her mind and reflected her soul. All of which are evident on "Nightly Sounds", an 8 track album which is the equivilent of having a glimpse into a diary, learning of love lost, gained, a snapshot of the human condition from which we can all draw experience... All of these things are developed musically into minimalistic glitch, noise, idm, experimental music and microsounds, influences reminiscent of work by artists like Tujiko Noriko, Mira Calix, Plaid and Björk.
Adviruz and Section 27 present "Nightly Sounds", an intricately woven and rewarding musical tapestry. Available now for free download.
