Pete Swanson is, in a word, experimental. His music is a mash-up of industrial noise, pulsing electronic dance music and pure, minimalist expressionism. He draws from a varied and complex pool of musical subcultures, resulting in a product that often transcends more well-established music genres.

Swanson’s style might be aptly compared to that of Tim Hecker, electro-wiz and Mission Creek Festival veteran. Not unlike Hecker’s 2012 Mission Creek performance at Iowa City’s First United Methodist Church, Swanson’s show is sure to be a something special. Consider putting it on your to-see list, and in the mean time, be sure to check out Swanson’s brand of experimental music below.

“If you want to take what I do seriously, go ahead… If you think it’s a waste of time, that’s fine. You’re not getting in my way or hurting my feelings.” Great interview with Pete Swanson on Tiny Mix Tapes.Ears Have Ears: Unexplored Territories In Sound
