Biografía

Chris Knight performs live electronic music under the name Glitter Skulls Techno. His mind-melting improvised performances draw on trance-inducing rhythms with chaotically-generated melodies and bass lines. Advancing and receding walls of delicate yet destructive filtered noise, and lush digital reverb surround his live-mixed compositions. His soundscapes consume audiences into folds of space-time, transporting them to undiscovered multiverses. Knight’s technical process involves combining influence from West-coast modular synthesis, NYC hardcore and Detroit-style techno drum machine work. An engineer at heart, Knight is continuously building and customizing his own modular performance system, "The Techno Garden". His experimental hardware-based performance regularly travels to DIY festivals and events in the Northeast US including Mad Liberation Festival (NJ), Yallapunk (PA), Grassroots Festival of Music and Dance (NY), and the Dark DIY festival (NYC). Chris Knight is a community arts organizer and electronic music performer based in Ithaca, NY. Knight has been a long time organizer in the Ithaca music community as an event planner and board member of Ithaca Underground. Through Ithaca Underground he works to provide all ages spaces where alternative and experimental music can thrive. He focuses on developing the talents of local early-career performers of underrepresented backgrounds and identities, who produce art and music across the boundaries of traditional genres. As a music educator he has given workshops in modular synthesis and electronic music theory and practice at the Ithaca DJ Festival, Ithaca Underground Summer School, and Yallapunk (PA).
