about

Los Angeles-based sound artist, composer and LINE imprint curator Richard Chartier returns to 901 Editions with “Eventual”, his first solo album for the label. This work follows two collaborations with fellow American artist Yann Novak (“Undefined”, 2013), and Dutch harpist Gwyneth Wentink as Pinkcourtesyphone (“Elision”, 2016). “Eventual” probes the nuanced interrelations between sound and silence, engaging audiences in attentive listening and a heightened sense of spatial and temporal perception. Chartier shapes a terrain of vanishing tones and subtle variations, a quiet tension that dwells within sound’s slow unfolding.



Formed & recorded 2024-2025 by Richard Chartier.
Mastered by Giuseppe Ielasi.
Design + photography by Fabio Perletta.

Thank you to Fabio Perletta, Asmus Tietchens, and Robert Eckhardt.

Richard Chartier (b.1971) is a Los Angeles based artist / composer considered one of the key figures in minimalist sound art. Chartier’s works explore the inter-relationships between the spatial nature of sound, silence, focus, perception, and the act of listening itself.

Chartier’s critically acclaimed sound works have been published since 1998 on a variety of labels internationally including Room40 (Australia), Touch / Ash International (UK), Editions Mego (Austria), Portraits GRM (France), Important Records (US), mAtter (Japan), Raster-Noton (Germany), Spekk (Japan), Trente Oiseaux (Germany), 901 Editions (Italy), 12k (US), and his own imprint LINE (US).

He has collaborated with composer William Basinski, sound artists ELEH, France Jobin, Robert Curgenven, Taylor Deupree, AGF, CoH, Yann Novak, and German electronic music pioneer Asmus Tietchens. In installation form, he has created works with multimedia artists Evelina Domnitch and Dmitry Gelfand, visual artist Linn Meyers, and projected light artist Anthony McCall. As Pinkcourtesyphone he has collaborated with Cosey Fanni Tutti, Kid Congo Powers, harpist Gwyneth Wentink, AGF, and thereminist Evelina Domnitch.

Chartier’s sound works/installations have been presented in museums and galleries internationally including the Whitney Biennial and the influential sound art exhibit Sounding Spaces at NTT/ICC in Tokyo. His performances have occurred live across Europe, Asia, Australia, New Zealand, and North America.

Chartier's compositions have accompanied dance works by noted choreographers Cristina Caprioli (CCAP, Sweden), Ohad Naharin (Nederlands Dans Theater), Dustin Klein (Germany), and Marco Blazquez (Spain). 

Since 2000, Chartier has curated his influential label LINE, publishing over 170 editions documenting the compositional and installation work of international sound artists and composers who explore the aesthetics of contemporary and digital minimalism.

Chartier’s two-hour radio program ‘Between Two Points’ can be heard monthly on Dublab.com.
