With an emphasis on the emotional stream vs. a spelled out lyrical message, the West coast alt-rock/electronic-fusion collaborative independently released their EP, Mull, this month just in time to harness the chill. Fully loaded with minimalist beats and monotone echoes, the four tracks (Mull, Rocks and Paper, Waiting Like A Wolf, Gone) simultaneously dial into Massive Attack and Bonobo but have no problem standing alone as clean, original compositions.
Collaborators Alek Fin (performed, recorded), Jason Sharp (mix) Dave Cooley for Elysian Masters (mastered), and B3PO (artwork) bring us what could very well be the soundtrack for the next Matrix. Futuristic, downtempo, and melodically organized Alek Fin introduces to the indie-synth scene a fresh wave of addictive beats.

WHAT DO YOU GUYS THINK?
Winter in a song. Alek Fin captures the panache of coldness with his new release, Waiting Like A Wolf. And all of the song’s ghostly layers reveal a huntsman that which listeners can’t escape. The mirage of vocals over simple acoustic and soft electronics are key sounds where Fin has clearly marked his territory.

beautiful work! posters for posterity!2
I like it. And it grabbed your attention esp. if you posted a comment below. whether you love it or hate I don't see anything where it promotes violence or degrading women.. what i see is government taking away the rights of a citizen n the rights away from people. Failure to follow instructions will land us in prison like the model. Now if steven photographed the same concept with average shmucks would we pay much attention to it? i dont think so. it'd be just another political journalistic photograph.3
