Description
================
Multi-instrumentalist and sound engineer Rena Jones is a force to be reckoned
with. At age 30, she boasts more than 30 collaborative albums, 20 years of
classical violin study, and 12 years of cello-and she is considered one of the
leading women in audio engineering today. Jones has toured internationally,
performing at such electronic-music gatherings as the Shambhala Music Festival,
Burning Man, and the Glade Festival. Her third solo release, Driftwood (Native
State Records), is a fresh, innovative take on down-tempo electronic music,
with her acoustic strings work intermingled with premade beats that she created
from scratch. Driftwood has received quite a bit of media attention, most
prominently a feature on NPR's Echoes radio program, which showcases new music released by independent artists. The 2006 New Age Reporter Lifestyle Music Awards nominated the record in three categories: Best Dance/Club/Dub Album, Best Ambient Album, and Best Cover Art.
What sets her apart from the majority of electronic composers in the ambient scene today is her manipulation of string sounds from real acoustic violins and cellos along with purely electronic beats.
