SØS Gunver Ryberg DENMARK

Performing Artist at HARPA Awardshow 2020

SØS Gunver Ryberg is an award winning composer, sound artist and live performer known for her releases and also her extensive compositional and soundtrack work for video games, films, VR/AR, international theatre and dance productions.
She has been awarded several times for her music and significantly a BAFTA nomination for her work on the multi award winning video game INSIDE.
SØS Gunver Ryberg is known for her uncompromising intensity, groundbreaking and genre-defying electronic music. Transforming the listener, opening their consciousness to new dimensions through powerful and complex timbres and textures and captivating new rhythms. Her music embodies a blend of futuristic and timeless musicality, fearlessly embracing the present while offering perspectives into an unknown future. It holds the promise of more awareness.

Latest album SPINE 2023 on ARTERIAL is sparkling with its dreamy sequences and sonic expressionism and also has all the previously mentioned qualities inherent in Ryberg’s sound. Still, the tone has changed — the thunderclouds have parted, revealing sophisticated futuristic soundscapes on the cusp of IDM, ambient, techno, and dub. “CLOTH mag “It’s no tentative toe dip of an affair – more like a full on leap into the icy waters of true experimentation.” Juno Daily best Album of the week."She creates electronic gold" Seismograf /// "'SPINE' is, like everything touched by SGR, insanely well-produced and sonorous, and just simply skillfully made." Passive Agressive. ///  "It's great that we have some of the best the genre has to offer on Danish soil." "Excellent abstract album" Information Danish Newspaper.

SØS Gunver Ryberg performs her music at festivals and venues all over the worlds such as Berlin Philharmonie concert hall, Danish National Radio concert hall, Aphex Twin Curates, Berghain, Atonal Festival, Roskilde Festival, Flow Festival etc. to art galleries and museums to site-specific locations such as an underground water reservoir, a subway train, a swimming pool, a abandon power station and an old industrial ship to name a few.
