Forest Swords is electronic producer, composer and visual artist Matthew Barnes, based in Liverpool, UK. Barnes is known for rewiring sounds into innovative and unique new worlds, most recently on acclaimed album ‘Bolted’ (Ninja Tune), remixes for the likes of Bjork, and collaborations with Massive Attack and Neneh Cherry.
His immersive albums and live shows (seen at festivals across the world such as Sonar, Unsound and Glastonbury) explore the powerful inbetween spaces between ancient and future sounds, melancholy and euphoria, light and dark.
Barnes’ work as a composer includes music for the Oslo National Ballet, pieces at Shanghai Biennale and Melbourne Triennial, and a production of the Greek tragedy ‘Fedra’, currently touring across Italy’s oldest outdoor theatres.
