Kenneth G is a musician, composer, and sound enthusiast who lives in Duluth, MN. He is interested in the sounds that are produced in nature and how they can be incorporated into music, and also in how the sounds of the industrialized world combine with and influence the natural world. He uses a digital field recorder as well as vintage tape equipment to document sounds he comes across in the woods or near rivers or lakes, brings them back into the studio, and treats them with an array of software and electronic sound processing devices to hone in on their inherent musical qualities. Using this method, he creates otherworldly, ethereal music that is often difficult to place into conventional genre labels. As a performing musician, he has played keyboards in various bands and collaborative projects around Duluth and the Twin Cities, favoring vintage analog synthesizers from the 70s and 80s for their raw sound and direct, form-follows-function design. His album Harbor Songs is available on Bandcamp and at River City Records & Books.
Pylon is a recently formed electronic music collective based in Duluth, Minnesota. They have been playing synth-heavy, long-form pieces of instrumental music that are both hypnotic and groove-oriented. Drawing inspiration from classic 70s electronic artists like Kraftwerk and Tangerine Dream, 90s techno, and touches of modern hyperpop like Charli XCX and 100 gecs, Pylon is equally fit for an audience of attentive listeners or anyone looking to bust a move on the dancefloor. The Pylon roster is a fluid one, and the lineup can include: Kenneth Gregory, Ned Netzel, Brian Ring, Anton Kloeckl Jimenez, and Steve Sola.
