IHEARIC VIDEOS - Some Prog Rock and a Guitar/Violin Duo






This week we present just two performances. One is from Iowa City band, The Main Sequence, with some ambient prog music. Then Boris and Natasha present some singer/songwriter music accompanied by violin.

"Ambient prog-psych! Spontaneous compositions of fearsome beauty featuring guitar soundscapes, Moog, Mellotron, and other unworldly sounds. Slowly unfolding journeys through inner and outer space presented for fans of Fripp & Eno, Tangerine Dream, Sunn 0))), and the free form moments of early Pink Floyd."
- from their Bandcamp page

"The Main Sequence’s Joel David Palmer and Joshua Alan Weiner make improvised ambient music. Their band name, a term from astronomy, ties these guys to space, a familiar theme in ambient music. Luckily they don’t use cliched samples of astronauts chatting with mission control—they use guitars and effects to explore a slowed-down realm inhabited by echoes and ghosts of echoes...

"Like Iowa City’s experimental droners, LWA, the appeal of The Main Sequence is that they’ve improvised together enough to find their own unique musical space. Within that space, anything is possible: happy accidents, startling juxtapositions, sustained sequences of almost telepathic unity. They may not know where they’re going when they start playing, but the journey is the destination."
- from a review by Kent Williams on the Little Village website
