Short film creator, vintage synth buff, and library music aficionado Rolan Vega is at the leading edge of a new generation of Chicago artists crossing electro, pop, ambience, and experimentalism into new, forward thinking and iconoclastic forms. With a collection of vintage synths in hand Vega has produced a huge body of work, ranging from the introspective, lo-fi ambient music created for his and others' short films, to electro-pop music in his Ariisk guise. Not one to blast hundreds of demos out into the world, Vega has casually been building an intense and varied back catalogue of unreleased material, focusing on studio developments, local DIY audio-visual happenings, and synth love. Documentary is his first ever official release and will be followed by more audio-visual work as well as debut Ariisk recordings.
