Requiem are a DC-based audiovisual arts group founded in summer 2020 as the brainchild of multi-instrumentalist, producer, and multimedia artist Doug Kallmeyer, and experimental guitar player and soundscape designer Tristan Welch, and established visual artist Monica Stork.
Known for their immersive, cinematic and hypnotic multimedia experiences, Requiem’s core sonic identity is characterized by heavy soundscapes, deep synthetic bass, and musical percussion in service of arrangements imbued with an inherent emotional depth.
Often drawing elemental comparisons to groups like God Speed You! Black Emperor, Bowery Electric and Faust, Requiem are forging a path which elegantly bridges the gap between pop sensibilities and instrumental post-rock, Drone, and addictive electronic rhythms. Frequent collaborations with artists from around the world and constant experimentation has resulted in sold-out releases on both UK and US labels, and a steadily growing discography.
