Since the release of his first CD Advanced Environmental Control in 1995, Marc Behrens has been at the forefront of the post-minimalist artistic current alternately referred to as lowercase or microsound — music that inhabits a very quiet region between electroacoustics and sound art. One of the major artists in the field (together with Francisco López, Bernhard Günter, Steve Roden, and John Hudak), Behrens is also very active as a sound installation artist and a graphic designer. He has albums scattered around the world, on Trente Oiseaux, Raster-Noton, Edition..., Intransitive, and CMR, among other labels.
