We Are Rising - Instrumental

by Son Lux

supported by

Christopher Moklebust I remember hearing Son Lux's We Are Rising years ago and thinking that it was one of those rare instances of progressivism within a genre of music filled by mediocrity. Plus, I've always considered vocals to be rather tertiary in importance - and, for the most part, the instrumentals within this album are deserving of critical praise. To put it simply... it's just cool man! Favorite track: Flickers - Instrumental.

Thomas Filepp It's interesting to hear a lot of the subtleties close up that you wouldn't be able to pick out on the proper album. Favorite track: Flickers - Instrumental.

Michael Rodino I will listen to the instrumentals and the full record back to back on repeat on a regular basis. This is electronic music done with grace and hook. This is what I want on my radio every day. Favorite track: Let Go - Instrumental.

about

Son Lux New York, New York

From the start, Son Lux has operated as something akin to a sonic test kitchen. The band strives to question deeply held assumptions about how music is made and re-construct it from a molecular level. What began as a solo project for founder Ryan Lott expanded in 2014, thanks to a kinship with Ian Chang and Rafiq Bhatia too strong to ignore. ... more

All Delighted People EP
by Sufjan Stevens

It may not be a full-fledged LP, but All Delighted People is probably my favourite of Sufjan's works. Without an overaching album theme to tie the songs together, it felt like Sufjan was free to experiment on each track and give them their own unique sound. And because of that (and Sufjan's talent), every track on there is a standout track. Angkasawan
