Bio
Glyphbound is Tom Adshead’s solo electronic music project. He has been performing and self-releasing electronic music since 2020. His work often moves between ambient and leftfield techno, and his live show currently consists of material on his upcoming album, Naturalised. Tape loops and field samples are mixed with sharp, digital tones to create tracks that are spacious and sparse, yet rhythmic and driving.
“Moth / Orchid,” his most recent release, was selected by Nina Protocol for its editorial playlist. “Octec” was debuted on Valby Rotary co-founder Louf’s NTS Radio 1 mix.
Glyphbound [formerly listed as Sculptural Mode] co-hosted e-motion, a mix series in collaboration with Montreal DJs WASIE, Patience Girl, and Monsieurmadam. The series played at Bar Lè Systeme, Barbossa, Nouvel Établissement (R.I.P.), and other venues, between 2022 and 2024.
