A.k.a. Solipsism

Solipsism is Craig Murphy, an experimental musician and recording artist from Glasgow in Scotland. In conjunction with his solo material as Solipsism, he also works with Lee Norris (Norken/Metamatics/Nacht Plank) as Ashtoreth’s Gate and Solipsism & Nacht Plank and he has previously worked with singer and lyricist Neil Carlill (Delicatessen/Lodger) as Shoosh. Murphy founded the Glasgow imprint Herb Recordings in 2006 and ran it until 2013; he continues to do A&R work for the label. His eclectic style and unorthodox methods has seen Murphy release on a variety of labels over the years in several genres and his music has been featured on major radio stations such as BBC Radio 1 and BBC 6Music. In October 2012, Igloo Magazine described Solipsism’s Weaving Spiders album as “a magnificent and sonically meditative sound experience, colourfully ritualistic, spherical and deeply absorbing.”
