about

Electronic composers, John Thayer (Brooklyn) and Michael Hix (Nashville), met in NYC in 2017 where they were both living at the time. After playing a show together at Sunview Luncheonette in Brooklyn, the two resolved to work together on new music. They exchanged ideas remotely over the course of 2 years, Michael having moved back to his home state of Tennessee. Semblance is the result - a new longform piece for synthesizers, tape loops & field recordings.

Primarily composed by John with contributions from Michael, what started as a simple piano loop morphed into something expansive and mysterious. The music is a landscape in itself to explore, best experienced with headphones and at night.


This is music for when the sun has set and the veils have thinned.
