Helios - Moiety

Artist: Helios
Album: Moiety
Genre: Shoegaze, Ambient, Electronic, Experimental
Label: Unsigned
Year: 2012
From : Portland, OR

Tracklist
01. Nothing It Can
02. Your Zenith
03. In Everything Was Given
04. Nature People
05. Bold Advances
06. Equal Ourselves
07. Ours Everyday
08. Ideas or Hopes

I think it’s evident now that Keith Kenniff, the man behind Helios, is rather good at making beautiful music. Since his debut in 2004 he has consistently sculpted the kind of distilled, crystalline ambience that quietly refuses to be attached to any particular emotion. Indeed, this purity has been the defining factor in separating him from any like-minded contemporaries. There are no fractured shifts of confusion here; nor pitiful wails; and apart from a predominant strain of optimism there are rarely any outstandingly happy moments either. It’s unburdened serenity, and in the past eight years he has not faltered from this peaceful, detached vision. One could easily argue that it’s this weight of humanity that matters, sure, but so far it seems that Helios has managed fine, regardless. Whichever way you look at it, Moiety offers more of what we have come to expect. more...

"X Suns (pronounced TEN SUNS) is instrumental heavy rock and roll at it’s finest. Prepare yourself for a nonstop epic ride through dense guitar layers and head-rattling drums. Also their lights are probably some of the best I’ve seen from a local band, so grab some psychedelics before you show up." -seattlecore.org

Silian Rail - Each​/​Other

Artist: Silian Rail
Album: Each​/​Other
Genre: Math-rock, Post-rock
Label: Parks and Records, Side With Us Records, 500 Records, Subsuburban Records
Year: 2012
From : Oakland, CA

Tracklist
01. young moon 04:33
02. the beast 05:41
03. glass house 07:18
04. a nothing summer 03:42
05. shapes 04:49
06. a fit or a fever 07:01
07. each/other 02:14
08. goodnight, no blame 05:33

Silian Rail is Robin (guitar) and Eric (drums, foot synth, glockenspiel). They play instrumental music which combines richly complex, open-tuning, finger picked guitar playing with aggressive, intricate drumming. Their songs are constantly shifting mazes of rich melodies and intense rhythms, equally epic, fragile and explosively dynamic. They are long lost friends who grew up together in North Carolina and parted ways at 13, only to re-meet by chance years later in California. Drawn together by the shared history of their musically rich hometown and the sheer oddball luck of the situation, they began playing music together. They immediately found it quite delightful. They have played with great bands like From Monument to Masses, Maserati, Tartufi and Judgement Day. Sometimes they play places like Bottom of the Hill, sometimes they play at sweaty houses. Other things about them: performed original live scores four years running for the Madcat Women's International Film Festival, collaborations with visual artist Luke Judd, proud members of Thread Productions (East Bay Express' Best Music Collective of 2007), alongside Tartufi and Low Red Land......They are both interested in the weather, but Robin checks the forecast ahead of time, while Eric kind of likes to be surprised.
