Soundwave SF is honored to announce our recipient of the 2024 Buzz Award - Joel St. Julien!
Joel St. Julien is a Haitian-American composer, sound and video artist based in San Francisco. Joel has written music for documentaries, short / feature films, podcasts, and dance. He is a firm believer in experimentation/fusion with acoustic and electronic elements in sound oscillating through escapism and the mysticism of the present tense: music both being art and spiritual practice.
Joel has shared music at the San Francisco Electronic Music Festival, Stanford University’s CCRMA, Gray Area, CounterPulse Festival, Land and Sea Gallery, Re:Sound, The Lab, and Kadist Gallery.His music has also been featured and reviewed in Resident Advisor, The Wire, Disquiet, KQED, Foxy Digitalis, a closer listen, Dublab, and many more.
Joel has released music independently and on Land and Sea, Dragon's Eye Recordings, Beached Records, and CST Imprint.
The BUZZ Award is a prize that recognizes promising San Francisco Bay Area artists that are making a creative impact with their sound-related work and have demonstrated great potential and commitment to performance and immersive art.
