Cuttfruit
About
Cuttfruit can be metallic and machinic. They can also be gentle.The South East London-based artist's output has been described as saccharine pop saved onto a corrupted hard drive, and draws comparisons to Arca, Jockstrap and Death Grips. Thumping melodies, choppy synths, spacious whirring noise and suffocatingly claustrophobic harsh computer sounds all can be found within. Their work discusses post-gender queer vulnerability through performance and audiovisual practice, grounded in electronic and technological processes. They have released a number of singles and remixes, with Rockfish being the fan-favourite, a off-kilter song about long-distance yearning, and Reconnection with Simon Spx featuring on BBC Radio.Cuttfruit's signature mask serves as a reminder that our biometrics should belong to us alone in a world that continues to curb our civil liberties and privacy. With an output that spans choreographed work, theatre composition and experimental filmmaking and scoring, they have recently expanded into community organising and fundraising. Co-founding Knots, a cross-disciplinary collaborative fundraising event, has provided a new creative outlet for Cuttfruit. Facilitating these events has been infinitely rewarding in breaking down barriers to access and forming new lasting connections amongst artists from very different scenes, backgrounds and experiences. Becoming a Roundhouse Resident Artist has also provided new inspiration for the future of their sound.
Projects
KNOTS
A growing network of creatives collaborating with noise and sound art to fundraise for direct action groups, charities, and more to combat encroaching authoritarianism. Facilitated by Cuttfruit and vanchoked, KNOTS aims to divorce itself from the consumerist driven and barrier entrenched experimental music scene, while opening it up to cross-disciplinary collaborations.Knots i - 13/02/2026
