Robert Aiki Aubrey Lowe

Robert Aiki Aubrey Lowe (b. 1975) is an artist and composer who works with his voice in the realm of spontaneous music, most often under the Lichens moniker. Modular synth patch pieces and tonal vocal work have been the focus of his live performances and recordings recently. The quality of sound achieved through the marriage of synthesis and the voice has allowed for a heightened physicality in his ecstatic music both within live and recorded settings.
