Insect Factory is music from Silver Spring, MD musician Jeff Barsky. Insect Factory generally focuses on texture and mood, building layers of sound that slowly evolve into hypnotic and atmospheric drones.
Since the 90’s, Barsky has continuously played in bands and improvisational collectives, and has performed frequently on the east coast of the U.S., and also in Canada, throughout Europe, and Japan. His first proper release, “Air Traffic Control Sleep”, was released on Insectfields in the late summer of 2007, to acclaim from the likes of Washington Post, the Wire, and Terrascope.
Barsky’s various projects have shared the stage with acts as diverse as Richard Pinhas, Nels Cline, Acid Mothers Temple, and Carla Bozulich, and he has performed at Suoni Il Per Popolo festival in Montreal, Terrastock 7 in Louisville, KY, and D.C.’s Sonic Circuits, Queering Sound, and Fringe Festivals.
Insect Factory recently released a split 7” with RST (New Zealand), and will release a full length LP on Fabrica/Insectfields in early 2012.
