Biography
Described as 'one of the most exciting sonic experimenters to come out of Birmingham for some time' by Midlands promoters Colour, Arc Vel's explorative electronica is touched by elements of hip hop, world, post rock and house music. An inherent warmth and instinctiveness fills his sound which is realised by the subtle use of field recordings, live guitar work and rhythmical intricacies.
He released his debut ep 'Lin' in 2008 with the majority of profits going towards children's charity Kidscape. Recently, after some time away working on live shows supporting the likes of Baths, Walls and Martin Creed, Arc Vel followed up last year's 'Hippocampus' e.p. with his first full length album 'Orrery' out on First Fold records June 2012.
