Sick as a dog. Drowned in Sound.

So I've been in bed for 2 days now, aching, sneezing, and weezing. It sucks, but somehow, music has gotten me through it. Like this new video from Sonlux. Frenetic and dynamic- it doesn't make me feel so bad for being pent up and quarantined. Son Lux is on Anticon records...It's the work of electronic-ambient creator Ryan Lott.Here's the reason for the name Son Lux, according to an MTV Blog:"There’s nothing terribly profound about the name “Son Lux.” I created the moniker because I had in mind to create a record of songs that were not really songs, but chants—small fragments of text set in shifting sonic landscapes. It’s an experiment for me, an exploration of chant and meditation practice in a pop context (though I should say the record isn’t exactly poppy. It borrows certain pop music constructions, but particularly avoids the two-part structural leanings of pop). Because I, as Ryan Lott, do everything from hip-hop to classical to jazz to folk, I created the “Son Lux” moniker to distinguish an identity for this particular concept.":)
