Beautiful vision beyond everyday life.
Sometimes image captured in films and pictures stays with us forever. Brayn Cox is a Musician / producer based in Kansas City. His solo work SOFT LIGHTING creates light and shadow, scent and  feel of that image with a warm sound from analog synthesizer. The very dreamy new remix of Far Way , “Far Way(1985 Remix)” that he delivers to us makes you feel like you are traveling in the skye full of stars. I can gurantee that shoegazer and chillwave fans will love the album “Slow Motion Silhouettes” that includes “Far Way” ! His works can be buy at the iTunesStore.

VW004 // RADIO INTERSTELLAR

Shall we go on a Interstellar trip together?
Most shoegaze bands are more or less influenced by psychedelic music. Radio Interstellar is no exception. They are very much influenced by the psychedelic music from 60’s to today. Giving Syd Barrett as their favorite musician, they express their love for psychedelic music more purely and simply than other bands. The two great pieces of music they have released are highly recommend. “La Escene” reminds us of Spacemen3 and “The Gift” by Velvet Underground. With “Oben” you will be able to enjoy the beautiful reverb and spacy tremolo sound they are most renown for.
