Lara Sarkissian is an electronic musician and sound artist from San Francisco, currently based in Los Angeles. She is founder of immersive record label btwn Earth+Sky, and a broadcaster on NTS Radio. Sarkissian was formerly co-founder of experimental dance label CLUB CHAI.
Sarkissian has developed her unique approach to composition over years of relentless experimentation across various disciplines. Her interest in music production initially stemmed from her filmmaking and video editing work, when she began to sculpt her own sound collages and scores to accompany the visuals. Since then, she's constantly blurred the boundary between dance and experimental music, DJing around the world, producing AV installations and scoring film and video projects that have been exhibited in Berlin's Gropius Bau, Montréal's Musée d'art contemporain, the Music Center Los Angeles and other prestigious institutions, and releasing music with labels such as Tresor, Knekelhuis, All Centre, Silva Electronics and CLUB CHAI, the label and event series she co-founded. In recent years, she's also been able to advance the theory behind her art, publishing a conversation with ethnomusicologist Sylvia Alajaji in the Journal of the Society of Armenian Studies in 2021, and unveiling her methodology in Norient's 'This Track Contains Politics - The Culture of Sampling in Experimental Electronica' a year later.
