Oscar Powell is a London-based artist/musician/composer. Via his own Diagonal Records imprint, his work on XL Recordings and, later, the opening of audio/film platform A Folde, Powell has firm footing in the contemporary electronic landscape. During a wry and obstinate musical life he has twisted myriad synthetic forms into shapes that explore and expand upon the districts of post-punk, techno, noise and computer music. He used to tour live all over the world, both as solo artist and in collaboration with
Wolfgang Tillmans, Russell Haswell and Lorenzo Senni.
