BIOGRAPHY:
THEIR FORTHCOMING ALBUM
WEAVE TOGETHER
landscapes of sound under the manicured facade of catchy melody. At first listen, their songs seem familiar and deceivingly simple. Simple, that is, until you pull at the thread of an interesting tone to find it unravels into a curated menagerie of disco, house, deep bass, anthemic rock, afrobeat, driving synth and ambience that reward multiple listens.
It’s the sort of music you’d expect to hear during a summertime pool party on the rooftop of some chic downtown LA club, but also while laying on your back on a cool desert night watching the stars spin.
“Greg and I have backgrounds in visual design,” Neff explains. “We admire authentic art that celebrates beauty in its natural state and immersive art that is created with new technology. To achieve this organic texture with our sound, we take grounded analog instruments and twist them with all sorts of effect-devices. This allows us to explore the new in a way that is also familiar.”
Neff and Tuzin’s first album can be considered a part of the emerging “chill” cannon of hybrid techno and rock ala Bonobo, Tycho and Phantogram. Their songs have a cinematic scope supported by the eclectic artists that mixed and added additional production. Jonah Sharp (Poolside, Astralwerks, Spacetime Continuum) replaced in-the-box-sounds and samples with vintage hardware versions, making use of Moogs, an Oberheim OB-8, a Prophet 600, a Roland SH-101, TR-808, TR-909 and Juno 106. Mike London (Warner Music, Disney), refined and tuned the sonic sculpture of the sounds. Chris Fudurich (MODERNS, Grouplove, Vast, Jimmy Eat World, Susanna Hoffs, Nada Surf, Matthew Sweet, Yes!) exposed grit and energy; massaging the songs to their final form. Finally, mastering was handled by Nathan Dantzler of thehitlab.com (Beach House, Ellie Goulding, One Direction, and Cherub).
What emerges are the varying gems that comprise S P A C E’s firsts set of single releases. From the highs of joy and hope to the lows of sorrow and loss, the band uses electronics, vocals, and instruments to explore what it means to be human. The EP announces itself with an upbeat remixed-choir and exits with a sweet piano lullaby announcing that S P A C E has arrived.
