Apologist and S.D. at Initial Shock III

Rose Actor-Engel (Apologist) is a Philadelphia musician and composer. She uses synthesizer, tape and field recordings to create ambient and experimental music, implementing specific rules and protocols to determine structure.
Since 2016, Montreal based S.D. has been playing in various projects (desolatum, high grove) with a focus on tape experimentation and improvisation. Using only cassette tapes and loops, she creates dissonant ambient drones swelling into harsh textural noise often accented by unamplified wailing screams.
