İpek Eginli is a Turkish-American experimental sound artist and pianist/improviser whose work blends electroacoustic free improvisation on piano, voice, modular synthesizers, and no-input mixing boards. Her performances are often described as adventurous, daring, playful, and vibrant, shifting effortlessly between organic and mechanical sounds to evoke emotions ranging from tender and soft to dark and explosive. Eginli’s electroacoustic solo debut album, Field Recording in a Black Hole (WeirdCry Records), and live improvised duo album Explorers with cellist Daniel Levin (EyesAndEars Records) launched in 2024, followed by her third album Clouds Carry Me to the Sky in 2025, which received recognition from BBC Radio.
Her international presence continues to expand, with tours planned across the U.S. and Europe and participation in festivals such as the Northwestern New Music Festival and Memphis Concrete. In 2025, Eginli was selected for the Medusai AI collaboration at the Goat Farm in Atlanta and toured with the European Music Collective. She has also held residencies at Sonoscopia in Portugal and the Hambidge Center in Georgia. In 2024, she returned to Turkey for workshops and performances at Istanbul Technical University, Bahçeşehir University, and Bilgi University.
