LLYN Y CWN LIVE:

22 Nov 24: Awen33, Bangor

BIOGRAPHY


Llyn Y Cwn conveys atmosphere and environment through deep ambient sounds. A phantasm of echoes reflecting the bleak majesty and poetic melancholy of the hinterland of North Wales. A hole within a void, a place defined by absence in a world of negative space.

Ben Powell has been making electronic music for over 25 years, drawing inspiration from his native North Wales landscape and his participation on Arctic research cruises. While most artists can only imagine what these desolate land and seascapes feel and sound like, Llyn Y Cwn is an authentic reflection of these incredible locations.

"I am an electronics technician for the School of Ocean Sciences at Bangor University. I spend a lot of time of time at sea on scientific research cruises which is where most of my music is written using a laptop and headphones. I have been on research trips to the arctic several times on Russian, British and Canadian icebreakers, an experience that has been a large inspiration to my music. I have lived in North Wales all my life and spend as much time as I can in my camper van in the mountains". (Benjamin Ian Powell)

Llyn Y Cwn (Welsh - lake of the dogs) is a small lake at 715m in the Glyder mountain range of Snowdonia, North Wales. Each release is accompanied by the artist's breathtaking photography of Snowdonia.
