Trever Hagen is an experimental musician working at the intersection of acoustic instrumentation and electronic sound manipulation. Based in Eau Claire, Hagen employs prepared trumpet and no-input mixing techniques to create immersive sonic environments that blur the boundaries between live performance and electronic composition.
His approach centers on real-time sound processing and instrumental preparation, transforming the trumpet into a vehicle for exploratory, textural soundscapes. Through movement-informed performance practices and unconventional signal routing, Hagen crafts dynamic pieces that challenge traditional distinctions between acoustic and electronic music, contributing to the broader landscape of avant-garde electronic experimentation.
