About
Overview
William J. Stokes is a British artist and producer. Weaving a dialogue between the guitar and modular synthesiser, Stokes’ compositions and soundscapes are suspended between noise, lyric, ambience, melody, drone and rhythm. As well as being a Visiting Lecturer at City St. George's, he is a columnist for Sound on Sound specialising in modular synthesis, and has also written on music and music technology for The Guardian, MOJO, The Financial Times and more. As a member of the avant-pop trio Voka Gentle (“hard to classify and even harder not to love” -Uncut) he has made two critically acclaimed albums and has collaborated with Wayne Coyne, Panda Bear, Sonic Boom and more.
