About Christopher Willits

Composer, multi-instrumentalist, and filmmaker Christopher Willits makes warm, immersive electronic music that fuses digital and analog elements. Fitting for an artist who regularly teaches both music production and meditation classes, he utilizes innovative technology to create his reflective compositions. He first received attention during the early 2000s for his melodic glitch albums such as 2002's Folding, And the Tea. Albums such as 2006's Surf Boundaries explored shoegaze-influenced avant-pop, while later efforts like 2019's Sunset and 2022's Gravity contained Willits' most purely ambient work. In addition to extensive collaborations with Taylor Deupree and Ryuichi Sakamoto, he has also regularly worked with Tycho, and collaborated with Kid606, Matmos, and Zach Hill in the experimental group Flössin. He is also the co-founder of creative community Overlap and spatial audio platform Envelop.
