Ian William Craig is a highly acclaimed artist known for his unique blend of ambient music and experimental soundscapes. Hailing from Canada, Craig has gained recognition for his mesmerizing compositions that combine haunting vocals with layers of distorted tape loops and delicate piano melodies.

With a discography spanning over a decade, Ian William Craig has established himself as one of the leading figures in contemporary electronic music. His ethereal soundscapes have captivated audiences around the world, earning him comparisons to artists such as Sarah Davachi, Kara-Lis Coverdale, and Abul Mogard.

Craig's music transports listeners to otherworldly realms, evoking emotions and creating immersive sonic experiences. Drawing inspiration from diverse sources including classical music, drone, and avant-garde experimentation, he crafts intricate compositions that push the boundaries of traditional musical genres.

Centres' is the stunning new album from Vancouver-based vocalist / composer Ian William Craig, and his first release for FatCat (Max Richter, Hauschka, Dustin O'Halloran, Johann Johannsson, etc) following two critically lauded back to back albums for Recital Program. Ian William Craig is a trained operatic vocalist who combines his voice with analogue synthesizers, reel-to-reel machines, and faulty tape decks to create sublime cascades of unpredictable decay and beauty. The songs were created manipulating tape loops through two or three decks at once to create strange deteriorating delays with different colors. Craig would then circuit-bend the bias to create odd kinds of distortion, or bend the sound back into itself so it feeds back in unpredictable ways. 'Centeres' is a stunning album that stands with a similarly unique sense of vision and integrity as the likes of William Basinski or Colin Stetson.
