Benn Down (born Jan 27, 1982) is a British singer, songwriter, musician, record producer and composer. He is the founder, lead vocalist and principle songwriter in various bands including; Benn, Portraits, Two Down, Pressure Fashions Diamonds and Diplomat. His first release was the album ‘Origins?’ under the band Two Down, which he founded in 2007 with long time-collaborator Callum Richardson. He has since released a vast number of albums, EPs and singles. Benn Down was an independent recording artist until signing with Hurt Records in 2014. In previous years Down was involved with iTunes, Sony, Universal Music Group, Vevo and Tunecore and came to the conclusion that not only did these companies tie up their artists in uncompromising contracts, but their percentage share of the artist’s revenue was appalling. Benn decided to step down from these companies and invest his time in creating a ‘contract-less’ Record Label that focused purely on the integrity of the sound recordings and bringing the artist’s visions to life.

At the beginning of 2017 Down embarked on a ten-year-long ambition to release his anticipated ‘Z’ story in audio form. The story being widely received as cryptic, intriguing and dark. Down is recognised for making his listeners work to understand the form that the story takes. Down maintains that the Z series of albums isn’t made for everyone, instead limiting its comprehendible exposure to a few thousand listeners.

Down is the owner of Hurt Records, a UK based independent record label. Hurt Records’ primary focus is to create extremely high quality music for it’s listenership. Hurt Records is unique in the fact that all of the releases on the label pass through a single studio complex; ‘Hurt Studios’. Down maintains that “the purpose of the ‘single studio’ mindset is that complete control over the entire process of an album’s creation is attained and artistic integrity is maintained at a high standard.”

Down’s music is currently licensed through both Hurt Records, UK and Create Music Group, US.

Cryptic Matter is an American alternative metal band from Baltimore, MD, created in 2011. The band was founded by Justin Bidinger (Drums), Devin Greenburg (vocals, guitar), Steve Hung (guitar), and Adam Bidinger (bass). Adam parted ways with the band and shortly thereafter came the additions of John Perry (bass) and Andrea Lauzon (keys).

Cryptic Matter generates its sound from alternative, funk, metal, and international music. Tragedy Guide and Asphexia were inspired by Asian sitars while upcoming Land of Kush in the traditional sounds of flamenco. With band members having roots in various parts of the world (Europe, South America, and Asia) the integration of the culture was pivotal in defining the direction of the band. This blend of influences of music and culture has created the exotic, groovy, and hard hitting music you will hear from Cryptic Matter.

So I am a starving artist that cannot seem to stick with just one style. I come from a hardcore/metal background and was a screaming vocalist for years. I started playing guitar in my mid teens, and then slowly started adding any and all other instruments I could get my hands onto. I play drums, guitar, piano, bass, and a few other random ones. I do however feel that the spoken word can dwarf all of them. I have been in multiple bands and they all seem to end the same way, with someones ego getting too big, or everyone being more concerned with becoming a "Rockstar" well before we were really even ready to play shows without messing up. A few years back a friend of mine introduced me to a 4 track tape recorder and taught me how to use it. I spent many hours creating songs, and ended up with over 4 hours worth of songs. I have now joined the digital music world and started creating tracks such as these, but am only 2 months into it. I do put my heart and soul into everything I do, my words are a gateway into who I am and how I feel. Placing myself out there for all to see. The definition of the word 'Transpicuous' is to be transparent. I feel that it fits me perfectly, as I am someone that does not hide anything, when it comes to my music I am like an open book, waiting for the world to read. So please, sit down put on some headphones and join me in my journey... Thanks for listening... Grace and peace!

This is a live recording from a show we played down in San Diego back in the day... Volumes aren't all the great but it gives you an idea as to what we were trying to accomplish. Thanks for listening! Steven Doyle aka Transpicuous
