About the Artist:
Mat Tyrrell is a musical artist recording under the name Winterkeep here in Queenstown for many years, and has only in the past 12 months taken the project out into the community. He creates visceral, cinematic soundscapes by processing real-world instruments (mostly guitar and piano) and blending them with spoken word, field recordings, samples, drum machines and synths, building a hypnotic story in sound.
