Furthermore, Rashad Becker runs the mastering studio Clunk He describes the sounds in his live performances as “entities”, as narratives describing states of affairs. The sources of the sounds he produces are difficult to identify since, although Rashad Becker works exclusively with synthetic sound generation, the result often has an organic appearance.
