Natasha Pirard is a Ghent-based musicologist and composer. As a composer, she explores the thin line of tonal and atonal frictions and the sonic ability to create an interesting dialogue of continuous and interrupted tape loops. Combining analog synthesizers with her voice and, occasionally, guitar, she yearns for ways to transpose them to magnetic tapes and manipulate them in such a way that tape becomes a musician on its own. A year after her first encounter in the DEEWEE-studio, she released her first album called “Dream Cycles”, a box of four cassettes with on each side a 15 minutes long composition, resulting in 120 minutes of music.
