Your mom hopped up on goofballs in a peanut butter wrestling match with a midget and a giant imaginary cheeseburger with sunglasses. And this is the just the ambient stuff...
Seattle's Gel-Sol is producer/musician Andrew Reichel, whose dichotomous sound spans from ambient soundscapes to complex, rhythmic electronica, creating a dynamic psychedelic universe with heavy emphasis on improvisation. In 2004, Gel-Sol released the critically-acclaimed Gel-Sol 1104 (aka Music Made For You...And By You, I Mean Me.) on the UK's cult ambient label Em:t Records. Gel-Sol's follow-up album Unifactor continues the tradition of his unique, amorphous sound collages, and was released on Upstairs Recordings (Vancouver) in April 2007. Gel-Sol's third album IZ, released by Upstairs/Psychonavigation in 2008, is an all-ambient excursion written for his niece, and is a bit of a departure from his previous two efforts.
Andrew is also a member of the electronic group KIDS FOR TOMORROW, an improvisational trio focused on experimental ambient music.
We have finally re-launched Koba Records. Please stop by the profile and listen to the latest release. And as always, comments and feedback are more than welcome.
Hey holmes!! Figured i would use myspace for once. Diggen that sample masterpiece, made me laugh, cry and long for more! My only quam is that you should have run the nightcourt jam a little bit longer! (but hey i'm biased you know me and the funk..) ANyway probably see you at the park hopefully?!? Stay cool till then
Its been selling faster than we expected, and we currently only have around a quarter of our stock left - so we thought we'd better you all know that if you want a copy then now would be a good time to pick one up! If you buy it from the link above then you're buying it direct from us, the label aren't taking a cut - so its a bit like Fair Trade for struggling musicians.
International mail-order is available, just follow the instructions.
Thank you very much, and sorry for making a mess of your profile. If its any kind of consolation, we don't have a MySpace bot, so I'm leaving these comments the old fashioned way. Three -and-a-half thousand of them. My life is so exciting.
...went 'full circle'....pretty funny, eh? looking forward to a new record and hope to see ya around sometime this year...nothing new to tell...take it easy...j.
