deep glens is the electronic music project of producer and mixing/recording engineer brett bullion. as an engineer, he has worked across genres with artists such as low, samia, hippo campus, margaret glaspy, bad bad hats, the bad plus, your smith, and craig taborn. deep glens is a return to bullion’s early roots in experimental electronic music, and draws on formative influences such as warp, mego, chain reaction, and touch, and blends these reference points with his extensive studio experience.
the debut album “earn grips" was constructed from improvisations using custom-built software environments, which later evolved into a live set which was recorded in chicago and released as “LIVE 2023-07-28.” autechre, the legendary warp records duo, featured both tracks from this performance during their bbc 6 music artist residency in december 2024, and subsequently invited bullion to join them on four dates of their 2025 north american tour.
on “carver,” bullion expores a tape-based variation of william burroughs’ "cut-up" technique. hundreds of analog tape loops—spanning rhythm, harmony, and texture—were recorded, spliced, randomly selected, and shaped into compositions using speed manipulation, filtering, and other effects. philosophically, the album reflects what it means to age as a finite human: the act of assembling meaning from fragments, carrying one's accumulated experience into the unknown, and creating something new from what's at hand.
