About Rayon
Artist Biography
Rayon is an experimental solo project of Markus Acher, co-founder of indie electronic band the Notwist and the Alien Transistor label. He uses the alias for his primarily instrumental soundtrack work, and the few Rayon recordings blend acoustic guitars and pianos with drum machines and samples, creating playful yet slightly eerie soundscapes. The project's first release was the soundtrack to Katja Schroeder's short film Run, released as double 7" Yom in 1995. Acher resumed the moniker a decade later with 10" EP Libanon, composed for Michael Shamberg's MaƮtre, lihseb Please. After another decade, Rayon returned with Il Collo e la Collana, the soundtrack to Eleonora Danco's film N-Capace. It was combined with Libanon for its CD release. ~ Paul Simpson
