WHAT'S GOING ON HERE?

ABOUT PENTARY TH' MOS

Pentary Th’ Mos is an American electronic music project led by Shelly Blake-Plock (b. 1974). A past member of the Red Room Collective and the High Zero Foundation, Blake-Plock has a deep background in experimental and free improvised music and has shared the stage with Joel Grip, Eve Risser, Dan Deacon, John Dierker, Thomas Dimuzio, Kenta Nagai, Wobbly, Jon Rose, Jennifer Walshe and many other leading avant-garde artists including at festivals and on tours in North America and Europe.

In the studio, he is known for employing a reductive approach honed over 25 years. Here, he has chipped away at the tracks methodically to identify what is essential on over a dozen albums and various singles and digital releases. With Pentary Th’ Mos, Blake-Plock fully leverages his method — blending the more conceptual aspects of experimental music with ambient soundscapes and beat-driven electronica. 

Often propelled by complex chords, dissonance, compound time, and compositional devices based on Hermetic and alchemical ciphers, Pentary’s music incorporates computer synthesizers and programmed minimalist beats to produce exquisite, if sometimes difficult, new music.

Honoring the tradition of the short song.

"It may only stretch 1 minute 36 seconds long, but inspired by a 70s punk ethos, American alt-punk-pop two-piece The Preambulators nail it perfectly on 'I Can't Stop Driving My Car'." — Little Indie Blogs
