their own biography
the whole biography
His work might be described as outsider ambient, blending underground experimental music with sound design, textural soundscapes, and sound mangling techniques. Moving through shifting moods and emotional registers, he explores themes of otherness and belonging. Through dense layering and continuous audio manipulation, he creates ever-evolving pieces that draw listeners into a sonic journey, eschewing the over-visited constraints of a tempo grid. Dove holds an MA in Contemporary Art Practice from the Royal College of Art and a BA in Sound Arts & Sound Design from University of the Arts London. Working across performance and installation, he approaches sound as a spatial material - composing with proximity, acoustics, and the room’s own noise floor to create focused listening situations that are both deeply present and intangible. His ongoing installation work INTER(FEAR)ENCE explores how fear can operate like an invisible filter: shaping perception, separation, and what becomes audible across social boundaries, inviting audiences into simultaneous perspectives and a heightened awareness of the sonification of race and the racialization of listening. He seeks to unsettle fixed perspectives and positions, creating works that are both deeply present and intangible. Having performed and shown work at many venues, contemporary art spaces and festivals across the UK and Europe, including locations such as the Barbican Centre, Institute of Contemporary Art, Cafe OTO, Chisenhale Gallery, Whitechapel Gallery and much more. NEXCYIA has established a notable presence in the ambient music scene with features on 180 FACT, The Wire, The Quietus, Crack Magazine as well as, appearances on NTS Radio and BBC Radio 6. NEXCYIA has performed with the likes of Caterina Barbieri, Kali Malone and Astride Sonne, and was a resident at the Cité internationale des arts in Paris and was part of SHAPE+ Platform 23/24.

the whole biography
Massachusetts born and Brooklyn based artist, producer and audio engineer Sophie Sawaya MacArthur, better known as Swaya, has spent a lifetime exploring the possibilities of storytelling and meaning making through sound. Raised by Brazilian and American parents, she spent her childhood studying violin before becoming disillusioned by the lack of creativity classical studies offered. She found her musical home on the internet becoming obsessed with hardcore punk, hip hop and experimental electronic music. A graduate of Communications Studies at Concordia University, she spent 5 years in Montreal where she was an active member of the music scene, performing her music at MUTEK, Pop Montreal, Slut Island, Never Apart, Datcha and more. Since she began posting her music online in 2016, Swaya has released 5 EPs and countless tracks, edits and mixes, consistently pushing and reinventing herself with each release. Beyond her personal artistic work Swaya is also an established producer and audio engineer, currently working with Brooklyn producer Tony Seltzer at his studio Seltzer Sounds.
