Skyler Hill

Skyler Hill is a sound maker, performer, and improviser who is deeply interested in dissolving sonic, social, and performative boundaries.

Currently, they are pursuing research into interactive musical spaces and creating a new form of musical game, titled House, which questions the audience-performer binary and allows for experimental forms of participation. Under the name Wavy Enneper, they also recently completed a concept EP which documents the process of trans becoming through the musical embodiments of anxiety, euphoria, and self acceptance.

With backgrounds in jazz and improvisation, the making of sound in particular moments and environments is a lens through which many of their projects are focused. However, they are also active as a producer, electronic/electroacoustic artist, and mixing and mastering engineer, working with sound in unique ways through analog and digital means.

A recent piece of theirs which combines many of these methods is Mood, Irrealis, for string quintet, saxophone, voice, and electronics. Written, arranged, recorded, mixed, and mastered by them, this piece shows the beginning-to-end process of music making that they’ve grown to enjoy, as well as the combinations of song and experimentalism that informs much of their work.
