::: Ashkelon Sain :::
I am a consummate recording artist, music producer and composer. From 1993-2001 I led the critically acclaimed Darkwave band Trance to the Sun, and more recently I performed as a member of the Portland psych-goth group Submarine Fleet. Through the past two decades I have participated in extensive collaboration with other artists I deem unique and intriguing; among them Scarlet Slipping; Cinema Strange; Dead Fly Ensemble; Claire Voyant; and most recently, Soriah.
The most recent releases to feature my work have been:
Trance to the Sun: Spiders, Aether & Rain (Projekt Records, 2007)
Submarine Fleet: A Very Strange Sight in the Distance (BSL Recordings, 2007)
Dead Fly Ensemble: An Entire Wardrobe of Doubt and Uncertainty (Trisol Music, 2006)
and, coming in August:
Soriah with Ashkelon Sain: Atlan (Projekt Records, 2009)
My interest lies in creating high-quality musical recordings that echo landmasses, oceans, rivers and phormations. Through the use of soaring melodies, hypnotic rhythms, and chilling chords, I strive to render music that transcends the space and time of its creation; a music that succeeds in exuding a feeling of insistent otherworldliness.
The items in my back catalog which remain in print are available through the Projekt/Darkwave Music Store.
MUCH LOVE TO YOU ALL!! THANK YOU FOR AN AMAZING SHOW..IT'S BEEN MUCH TOO LONG! LET'S DO IT AGAIN SOON... HOPE EVERYONE MADE IT HOME SAFE AND SOUND.. SEE YOU SOON, ASHK! XOXO VERONIKA
