Jonny Trunk

Jonny Trunk creates music that feels like a curated tour through a basement filled with forgotten 20th-century media. It is a world of warm analog hiss, rhythmic loops of found sound, and a distinctly British sense of the absurd. The music doesn't demand your attention with loud hooks; instead, it invites you into a cozy, slightly surreal space where the mundane becomes magical through repetition and context.

What sets him apart is his deep reverence for 'library music' - the utilitarian background tracks once used for TV and film. He treats these discarded sounds as high art, layering them with deadpan vocals or minimalist electronic pulses. There is a hauntological quality here, a feeling of nostalgia for a future that never quite arrived, delivered with a wink and a smile rather than gloom.

Start with 'The Ladies' Bras' for a taste of his viral, eccentric humor, then move into 'The Inside Outside' to hear his more atmospheric, collage-based work. It is the perfect soundtrack for anyone who finds beauty in the crackle of a vinyl record or the strange graphics of an old educational film.
