The Sun Cries Pt. One by Trance Mission

Artist Biography For Trance Mission

There's A New Generation Of Musicians Weaned On Byrne & Eno Hassell And In Fact The Nascent Sounds Of The Hybrid Music Propelled Out Of Punk And New Wave's Imploding Dynasty Back In The Early '80s. These Musicians Have Also Discovered The Broad Palette Of World Music Chosen Such Tools As Didgeridoos And Ancient Percussives Over Guitars And Adamantly Embraced The Possibilities Of Electronics Instead Of Snobbishly Rejecting Them. Stephen Kent Kenneth Newby John Loose Who Also Operate As Lights In A Fat City And Beth Custer Support This Attitude Through The Auspices Of Trance Mission With A Music That Future Authors Might Call Postmodernist Folk. MEANWHILE... The Band's Second Album Features A Music That Is As Exotic Sublime And Intoxicating As It Is Progressive And Original. Trance Mission Establishes A Benchmark Linking The Past With The Modern High-Definition Pulse Of Rock And Jungle. At Times Vigorous And Aloof "Zozobra " "Go Play Outside!" Then Wispily Melancholic "Bindi" Trance Mission's Sinuous And Wonderfully Played Compositions Reflect A Consistent New Dynamic That Smears The Borderline Between Cultures. Recorded At Mobius Music San Francisco California. Engineers Simon Tassano Christian Jones.
