For as much as we see, feel, and recognize humanity in actions, we also hear it in music. Alaskan Tapes brings a human element to the forefront of his delicate alchemy of ambient soundscape architecture and live instrumentation. The Toronto-based artist, composer, producer, and multi-instrumentalist a.k.a. Brady Kendall allows natural noises and flourishes to accent carefully curated production, never smoothing down its edges.

He has honed an uncanny balance of unfiltered dynamics and deliberate composition across a prolific string of releases, including We All Speak In Poems [2016], In Distance We’re Losing [2017], You Were Always an Island [2018], Millions [2020], Views From Sixteen Stories [2020], For Us Alone [2021], Drone [2021], and Who Tends a Garden [2023]. After generating streams in the hundreds of millions and carving out a niche without comparison, this dynamic vision crystallizes like never before on his 2024 full-length album, Something Ephemeral [Nettwerk Music Group]. Along the way, he has garnered nominations at the Juno Awards and Prism Prize Awards.
