Carbon Based Lifeforms

If you haven't noticed already, I've been on a "Psychill" binge. I heard this band over a year ago but didn't really have the patience to listen to them. I gave it another try today and liked what I heard. This song really starts to build up around 1:57, if you give it a chance.

H.U.V.A Network

An intriguing collaboration between the artists behind Solar Fields and Aes Dana. The top rated comment on this video is the best: "This sounds like the theme for some ultra-powerful mega corporation who want to take over the world."

Solar Fields

I plan to get back to regular postings as I slowly get settled down in Hyderabad. I have been out of the loop for the past two weeks, but as I was trying to get caught up with The Wandering Musicphile, I came across this song. Just what I needed. Patience with the build up, the song and the visuals only get better.

Solar Bears

This band isn't typical of my blog, but the homie Aaron requested I feature them. Always good to break the mold! Two dudes from Ireland that know how to combine acoustics, programming, and atmospheric jams.

Diaphane

Diaphane: Woven silk "stuff" with transparent and colored figures, also the name of Régis Baillet's solo project. This french artist creates dark and mellow soundscapes that are sure to captivate.

This Will Destroy You

Probably not a new band for most, but I saw This Will Destroy You last week in Denver and was very impressed. I was shocked how much heavier they sound live! These four guys from San Marcos know how to make some good down to earth post rock. Enjoy.
