Artist career

Electronic producer and composer Seb Gainsborough began his career as a producer of bass driven, experimental electronica both as a solo artist as well as under numerous guises alongside and as part of Bristol's 'Young Echo' Collective, most notably Killing Sound and ASDA.
Following a number of limited 12" EP releases with London label Left Blank and an EP on Mute Records subsidiary, Liberation Technologies, Gainsborough's 'Vessel' solo output has been released by Tri Angle Records.
His trio of albums on Tri Angle, Order of Noise, Punish, Honey and Queen of Golden Dogs have been widely acclaimed, averaging 78/100 on review aggregator Metacritic.
Alongside his studio album releases, Gainsborough has over recent years become increasingly known for his collaborative practice, especially concerning his collaboration with both classical instrumentalists and AV artists. Notably, he has collaborated extensively with visual artist Pedro Maia, contemporary classical collectives Immix Ensemble and Manchester Collective, acclaimed violinist Rakhi Singh and renowned visual artist Anouk de Clerq.
In July 2020 Gainsborough announced the launch of a new music imprint 'Paplu' in partnership with long-time collaborator, violinist Rakhi Singh. To mark this, a new edit of 2014's Red Sex was released featuring Singh on viola and violin. Three further Paplu releases were announced for release over the following 12 months, though no further details have been made public at this time.
