  • Bio

    ((SOUNDER)) is the music project of Mike Aho, who splits his time as a musician, visual artist and video director. In recent years Aho has directed videos for Mando Diao, Bonnie 'Prince' Billy and Jennifer Herrema in addition to creating video and commercial work used as international campaigns for Volcom Clothing, Ride Snowboards and Roger Skateboards. Aho is the co-creator and director of the cult-status surrealist skateboard comedy series, 'The Internet Shack' for Thrasher Magazine, which features Michael Sieben and Will Oldham, among others. He lives in Austin, Texas and has shown his visual art and performed music all over the United States, London, Tokyo, Peru and France. The music of ((SOUNDER)) has been featured on NPR, performed live on Fuel TV's 'Daily Habit', licensed for several network television shows and internationally distributed skateboard movies and was most recently featured as the score of indie-feature film 'I Like You', directed by Jamie Heinrich. ((SOUNDER))'s current line up features Aho, Tom Hoff and J Lee (American Analog Set), and Travis Cooper. Their music is produced by Matt Wignall (Cold War Kids, Mando Diao). ((SOUNDER)) was created in 2005 as a two-piece when Aho was living in Los Angeles and Costa Mesa, CA. Their first release, 'There is Another Sun Clouded Over With Meticulous Care' (2006), featured 500 signed and numbered copies by visual artist Mel Kadel, who created a hand-made book featuring an illustration for every song on the record and 8 different album covers. Volcom Entertainment released their second album, 'Good Things Come and Go Like Bad Things' (2008) to rave reviews from NPR, Paper Magazine, LA Record, mtv.com and many more. For 'Good Things…' Aho collaborated on 5 music videos with visual artists Michael Sieben, Travis Millard, Mel Kadel, Dave Bryant and Todd Bratrud. The video series has over 200,000 views online and was a MySpace homepage feature during its release. In 2010 and 2011 Aho self-released two 2 EP's, 'Stop That Dreaming' and 'If We Don't Get Better', and most recently a limited edition baby blue vinyl 7" with Mt. Inadale Records. He has recently begun work on the next full-length album due out in 2012; the release will be accompanied by a short film directed by Aho.

About ((sounder))


Photobucket
((sounder)) is the music project of visual artist, video director and musician Mike Aho. In recent years Aho has directed music videos for Bonnie Prince Billy and Mando Diao, he writes and directs the surrealist cult-comedy, The Internet Shack for Thrasher Magazine, and has shown his drawings and paintings all over the United States and London, Peru and Paris. On his most realized recording to date, ‘If We Don’t Get Better’, Aho has teamed up with J Lee and Tom Hoff (American Analog Set) and long-time producer Matt Wignall (The Cold War Kids) to produce a melodically saturated EP that stomps and rattles like a teenage road trip through vivid imagery of death and solitude; juxtaposed against a landscape of rebirth.
