Welcome to False Reactions. My name is Carl Ritger. I am a writer and sound artist, currently living and working in Boulder, CO.

Radere is the primary vehicle for my experiments with sonic ephemera. Inspired by the notions of stasis and chance, I have explored the fusion of acoustic sound sources and digital processing techniques for the better part of the last decade. My work largely avoids synthesis in favor of organic loops and live instrumentation; blurring guitars, cassette recordings and electronics into a densely textured wash of sound, burnished with carefully sculpted distortions and location recordings.

I also record under the name Grey Deer…occasionally.

Have a look around. If you like what you see, feel free to get in touch at radere.sound [at] gmail.com.

Thank you.
