Atlanta -based electronic musician. He is recognized for producing a layered and heavily processed sound, combining influences from old and modern electronic music. Devine largely records for theMiami -basedSchematic Records . As a result of praise of his music fromAutechre as well as aremix ofAphex Twin 'sCome To Daddy , Devine recorded an album forWarp Records which was jointly released by Schematic and Warp.Devine first started using computers for composition around 1993. Don Hassler, an instructor at the Atlanta College of Art, got him interested in computer synthesis, introducing Devine to

Devine claims he coded a couple FFT applications inSuperCollider , an environment and programming language for real-time audio synthesis. “It’s interesting, because you’re doing things to sound that just aren’t physically possible.”Devine also uses
Native Instruments (NI) software. His favorite NI applications areReaktor andAbsynth . Devine has also designed sound patches for NI’s Absynth. He has also scored commercials for Nike andTouchstone Pictures , and engineered and performed his own music worldwide.Though he has contributed sound design to a number of hardware and software manufacturers, he recently released his first official sample library through [http://www.sonycreativesoftware.com Sony Creative Software] entitled [http://www.sonycreativesoftware.com/loop_libraries/showloop.asp?spid=505 The Electronic Music Manuscript: A Richard Devine Collection]
