Julie Østengaard is a composer, sound artist and performer working with electronic music in performative, site-specific and multichannel works, as well as sound installations. Her earlier pieces have incorporated elements such as warning sirens, traffic noise, mobile phones, brain impulses and the contents of an old shipyard. Julie combines elements of electroacoustic music, IDM, ambient, soundscape and noise in an avantgarde approach to electronic music. Julie’s music is driven by a focus on storytelling, exploring identity in relation to societal structures, norms and expectations. Her compositions deconstruct rhythm, melody and form - disrupting conventional structures through collage-like layering, abrupt shifts and contrasting sonic textures, voice and beat-fragments that move between silence and rupture. Alongside her solo practice, Julie composes for contemporary dance and theatre, where she continues to explore narrative, spatiality and emotion through sound.
