SØS Gunver Ryberg

Wielding an arsenal of vigorous industrial rhythms, raw techno and expressive sound art, Danish artist and composer SØS Gunver Ryberg’s live sets are a staggering sonic barrage that aim to challenge your conscious state of mind and induce a transformative experience.

SØS Gunver Ryberg’s music deserves to be experienced live. The Danish contemporary composer and sound artist performs with an endless energy that audibly challenges your state of consciousness. Her characteristic style is weird, experimental and often terrifying: frenetic drum machines, murky drones, and walls of chaotic overdrive. Her work embodies her rich production history which stems within performance art and has guided her through sound installations, computer game soundtracks and audio walks. She’s quickly become renown for delivering music with an undeniable ‘live’ quality. These performances are, in her words, ‘site specific’; exploring the potential of the acoustic space. Her debut release, AFTRYK, on Contort Records was meticulously designed to induce internal torment, seemingly dark, but easily forgiven for her talent at creating intense journeys through sound.

This project is presented in the framework of We are Europe by Insomnia Festival.
