Scott Riesterer’s lifetime fascination and delight with the audible world has led him down some interesting paths. As a musician, his work makes use of recordings he gathers from his travels, and as Sublime Sound, Scott has contributed his post production audio skills to dramatic and documentary films, animations, video games, and oddly enough, the Chevrolet Volt. Additionally, Scott also writes monthly reviews of eurorack synthesizer modules for Ask.Audio.

Scott’s training in audio post production quickly spilled into his music, leading him to develop a personal technique of building songs around sounds captured by a portable recorder. In 2013 he released Sonidos De Cuba, an ambitious genre-defying album built upon field recordings from a short trip to Cuba. It was nominated for Best Electronic Album in the Western Canadian Music Awards and Scott performed a live version of the album in Winnipeg for BreakOut West. His follow up, Belizean Heat was released in February of 2018 featuring recordings of jungle birds and crickets, along with the underwater sounds of a reef captured using a hydrophone.

Scott is now working on using recordings from Iceland to create spontaneous live performances using his modular synthesizer, a system he configured especially for processing his field recordings.
