Tristan Burfield has been described by a new band a day as a modern day electro "polymath". His music often incorporates lo-fi elements such as videogames, toys, junk, glitches and noise. Tristan's stubbornly retro approach (which has seen him brandish Gameboy's, Nes Consoles and Commodore 64 sound chips as sound sources) often embraces limitations as a means of creative inspiration. His music has been played on Radio 1 and released on various independent labels such as Quagga Curios Sounds, Mute Sounds, Underground Pollution, IFAR, ain23, Linear Obsessional, Feed Me Glass, Floppy Kick and Monkey Love Records. Recently his projects have been enhanced by the incorporation of visual elements, his music has been used as an accompliament to a silent surrealist film (Blood of a poet), combined with small format film (Shimmies in Super-8), and has been juxtaposed against found manipulated material (Shadow Pictures, Switched On Noir: 14 Hardboiled Synthesiser Themes).
