oh no
it's just too much

he 
walks away
from 
everybody
he 
walks away
from 
everybody
he chases
one thing
that thing 
isn't right for him
isn't right for him

Royal Wave - Murder at the Supper Club

Building off the momentum from his first project, Textbook Maneuver (“A spaced-out odyssey of an album, leaning heavily into the ambient & left-field side of electronic music.” Magnetic Magazine /  “Textbook Maneuver creates music that takes listeners on an atmospheric journey.” Illustrate Magazine /  “No words required here. It’s all emotive sound, frequencies, and there’s plenty of it to entertain, energize, and even hypnotize.” Good Music Radar),. Life Science Records is proud to announce composer Michael Keane’s latest project Distance Major.  The self-titled debut is set to release exclusively on Bandcamp, Sept 6, 2025 and will release worldwide in October 2025

Michael Keane is the Bronx-born, New Jersey-based composer behind the Textbook Maneuver  and Distance Major aliases. A classically trained pianist with a punk DIY heart, Keane blends cerebral sound design with cinematic storytelling, drawing from a wide palette of influences that stretch from Genesis (Duke era), Rush, and Gary Numan to The Postal Service, U.N.K.L.E., and Phantogram. Under the Distance Major moniker, his releases balance the intellectually introspective feel of the best instrumental indie rock with the emotional resonance of ambient and prog-influenced electronica, offering soundscapes fit for film, television, and interactive media. His music thrives on improvisation and sonic experimentation, refusing easy classification while remaining deeply accessible. 

Distance Major shared: “The tracks on the debut LP were composed between November 2024 and August 2025.  I was trying to incorporate many aspects of synthesizer rock along with chill modern jazz.  I am trying to capture strong emotions and melodic flow even in the absence of lyrics.” Get on board now with this talented emerging new artist!
