Clarice Jensen

Clarice Jensen is a composer and cellist based in New York. As a solo artist, Clarice has developed a distinctive compositional approach, improvising and layering her cello through shifting loops and a chain of electronic effects to open out and explore a series of rich, drone-based sound fields. Pulsing, visceral and full of color, her work is deeply immersive, marked by a wonderful sense of restraint and an almost hallucinatory clarity. Meditative yet with a sculptural sharpness and rigor that sets it apart from the swathe of New Age / DIY droners, she has forged a very elegant and precise vision.

Her music has been described as “heavily processed, incredibly powerful neo-classical pieces that seem to come straight from another astral plane”; by Boomkat as “languorously void-touching ideas, scaling and sustaining a sublime tension”; whilst Bandcamp remarked upon “a kaleidoscope of pulsing movement rich in acoustic beating and charged with other psychoacoustic effects, constantly shifting in density and viscous timbre.”

Clarice will be playing music from her “Esthesis' album.

'Esthesis' is like a book that, upon reading it for the first time, you impulsively go back to the start to begin again." VAN MAGAZINE

“A beautiful and ambitious long player that pushes the neo-classical forward… Jensen’s album will delight and astound you… a stunning, dynamic, and sometimes delicate piece of work… Lush looping synths that are layered to perfection and, for some reason, never sound or feel the same way twice… this album will impact people profoundly…” MAGNETIC MAGAZINE
