Subfusc comprises the collaborative work of musician/composers Saul Rayson and Iain McCurdy. Drawing on styles and influences as diverse as electronica, jazz, electroacoustic and funk, Subfusc explore a seam of music that, whilst always experimental, remains accessible.
Working as a duo Subfusc sometimes operate independently and at other times function as a single unit where one player will electronically manipulate the acoustic sound produced by the other.

Saul

Saul Rayson is a drummer/percussionist who has increasingly drawn on electronics and techniques of computer music to extend the palette of sounds available to him in his work. He has studied computer music at University and holds a Degree in Music Technology. Saul makes extensive use of the computer programme Supercollider in his work with Subfusc.
Saul currently lectures at the South Eastern and Regional College (SERC) at Bangor, County Down.

Iain

Iain McCurdy has come from a background of electroacoustic composition having completed a PhD in composition. His work focuses upon the computer programme Csound. For some time he has been working with Csound almost exclusively in real-time. Recent work, especially that with Subfusc, has explored the incorporation of sensor technology with Csound. Within Subfusc Iain also plays a variety of electromechanical keyboard instruments.
