Amelie Nilles
Amelie Nilles is a French composer of avant-pop music and spatial audio expert from Paris, drawing inspiration from her background in singing and drumming on the jazz music scenes. Explorer of experimental realms, she offers an aesthetic approach to spatialisation in her music. Under the guidance of composer Régis Renouard-Larivière, she honed her skills in electroacoustic composition, while she was simultaneously pursuing her Master’s degree at Paris 8 University, delving into research exploring the spatial dimension of music. Constantly in the process of creating sound environments, she crafts captivating soundscapes weaving together her voice, field recordings, electronic textures, and organic rhythms.
In November 2021, she unveiled her debut EP, ‚A croqué le fruit étrange’, on Planisphère label, introducing listeners to her deeply personal and experimental universe, both dark and pop. Since then, she has performed live at various venues across Austria, France, Germany, Greece, Portugal and Slovenia ; has designed multichannel sound installations, collaborating with diverse artists along the way.
Among the themes dear to her, she challenges the intrusion of technology in every aspect of our lives without ever questioning it. While we tend to forget that humans are living beings among others, she advocates for a re-humanization of society, in opposition to trans-humanism.
