M. Geddes Gengras started his musical career by releasing a series of cassettes featuring his well-worn vintage Moog synthesizers. Across the past decade, he has evolved his practice to include more richly layered sonics and modular synthesis patterns, exemplified by his recent release ISHI. His music focuses on sculpting new sounds from raw voltage and creating engrossing sonic environments. In addition to two prolific solo careers (counting his dance-music alter-ego Personable), Gengras is an avid collaborator and has recorded and performed with The Congos, Akron/Family, Sun Araw, members of the Grateful Dead, and Cold Sun.
