About
Conor C. Ellis is an electronic music artist based in Brooklyn, NY. His practice focuses on the transformation of everyday sounds, memory, and careful listening.
His work is guided by a love of letting sounds simply be—unfolding in their own time, revealing textures, harmonies, and stories beyond conscious control. Inspired by John Cage’s invitation to “let sounds be themselves,” Ellis’s work is as much an act of listening as one of making.
Field recordings are centered in his work, found moments gathered like small treasures. That sense of discovery runs through his discography—from the immersive landscapes of Soft Earth (2019) to the layered, emotionally charged architectures of Cutting Out My Shadow (2021) and Dreamless (2022). His records explore sound as a container for memory, shaping delicate collisions between the concrete and the illusory.
In addition to making electronic music, he also works full time doing design and brand strategy.
