Solipsism - #2 ETShowcase 2009

, Craig Murphy is a musician, composer and producer of experimental music and a multimedia artist working with abstract music videos. Having established the rising Herb Recordings imprint in his native Scotland, Murphy’s own output resembles that of a musical odyssey. An obsession with Frank Zappa has seen to a fascination with experimentation and Murphy’s many projects span several genres. From the mechanistic, yet poignant electronica of Solipsism, his electro-psychedelic band Shoosh with Neil Carlill and multi-instrumentalist Ed Drury, to his recent ambient outlet ch.pm. Murphy’s distinctive sound is often abstract, yet retains a rich, melodic and emotional edge.
