Pleasantry was conceptualized and formed in late 2010. Recycling musicians from active as well as inactive bands, the quintet crafts and carves music out of each member’s disparate listening backgrounds. Drawing inspiration from dreamed-up scenarios based on real-life scripts, compositions showcase simple lyrical tones offset by the accompaniment of rich instrumentation and varied song structures.

Frinla, a sound artist based in Singapore.

His artistic practice exudes a sense of depth, incorporating a plethora of dark industrial tones, rhythms and foley recordings. The soundscape of his  project is constructed using a blend of intricately sculptured harmonics produced by string instruments, low frequency rumbles, and machine noises.

Frinla's musical background was shaped through his previous bedroom project Navire Creux. This cathartic endeavour evolved his sound with deeper clarity, greater euphoria and higher states of consciousness for a transcendent audio experience.
