Without Jesus, everything is meaningless

Presenting an engaging blend of electronica, rock, jazz, and contemporary classical music, Iridas has begun to take shape as one of Los Angeles’ most unique new bands.

Iridas was formed in 2015 by composer/producer/instrumentalist Matt Smith, in an effort to give voice to his demanding musical style. Smith met key members Sean Lyons and Megan Shung while they were in school together at the Cleveland Institute of Music, receiving classical training of the highest standard. Having developed a taste for pop music, the three young musicians sought to find a meaningful interface between the two worlds and began performing as an ensemble one part classical piano quartet and one part rock band, with a dash of live electronic dance music.

The Iridas sound, shaped primarily by composer Matt Smith, reaches deep into music history for influences. The lush harmonies and colors of Maurice Ravel combined with the rhythmic and textural intricacy of Gyorgy Ligeti are apparent in his orchestral and chamber music, but pop music’s sensual, psychedelic underbelly make an appearance as well; jazz fusion, alternative rock, and the LA beat scene have all made an impact. The result is unrecognizable simply as classical crossover - Iridas is something new.

BRAAINZZ is a lofi band from Highland Park, Los Angeles.

Mondo Music is a global leader in soundtrack distribution, fuelling renewed and broader interest in a genre that was long thought of as a specialist haunt.  “Jaw dropping attention to detail” (Pitchfork). 

Since 2010, Mondo & Death Waltz have blazed a trail in the field of music, asserting a position as the market leader in the collectible soundtrack market. Working directly with directors such as David Lynch, Brad Bird and composers as varied as Angelo Badalamenti, Clint Mansell and John Carpenter, the two labels have created a definitive catalogue and led a resurgence in collectible vinyl through the iconic releases of such classics as The Iron Giant, Halloween, Black Swan, Jurassic Park, Star Trek II: The Wrath Of Khan and The Back To The Future Trilogy. In addition to collaborating with the world’s leading creative talent, we have built successful partnerships with major studios (Disney, Universal, Fox, Paramount) and fiercely independent distributors (Magnet, Annapurna, Spectrevision, Laika) alike.
