Karen Gwyer

About

Karen Gwyer was born in the southern US and raised in the north. Now based in Berlin after more than a decade in London, she shifts between pumping, thickly melodic, just left-of-techno dancefloor vibes and diversionary acidic psychedelia in her expansive largely analogue live electronic performances. ​ To date, she has released acclaimed recordings on Don't Be Afraid, Nous, Opal Tapes and Kaleidoscope, among others. She has produced remixes for labels such as InFiné, Nous, Software, Public Information, Domino, Kaleidoscope and Different Fountains Editions, and created a number of commissioned pieces for Berlin's Pop-Kultur Festival and London's Open Music Archive.
