Laurentse is the solo project of Chicago-based musician Max Reikosky (he/him). Described as atmospheric and experimental, Laurentse utilizes electro-acoustic instrumentation, vocal stylings, and field samples to create diverse and emotional sonic palettes. Through works released with Netherlands ambient label Shimmering Moods Records and played on KEXP’s Pacific Notions, Laurentse strives to capture a range of tranquil, reflective, and political moods. A friend once described their sound as “ambient at heart” yet incorporative of “subtle, fractured beats without losing its unrushed, ruminative quality–just as a walking meditation progresses towards serenity through the rhythm of its steps.” Following their background creating digitally art-damaged sound collages in the noise outfit michealcushion, Laurentse aims to inspire unity and understanding through music, now wearing influences from the likes of Loscil, Susumu Yokoto, and the Books. Laurentse has a forthcoming ambient LP with the musician EMBASSY, to be released as well on Shimmering Moods Records."
