‘Compassion Pit’ is the lead single from the 3rd Texture & Light LP 'Vulture Medicine', and it perfectly embodies what the music of Texture & Light stands for - it is both heavy and light, fit for dancing and for daydreaming. 

Ocean waves give way to weird and wonderful melodic synth lines and analog drum machine beats that invite the listener’s body to sway like care-free seaweed in the tide, while the lyrics paint a story of depth, feeling, pain, and hope. Hazy guitar lines round out the sonic spectrum, providing an anchor in this sea of electronic dreams. 

Taken from the full length album 'Vulture Medicine', to be released November 20th 2020 via Introversion Records.

Vulture Medicine

Compassion Pit

Texture & Light was created by Trevor Mervyn as a way to explore live instrumentation, synthesis, field recordings, and deep themes, while striking a balance between the dance floor and headphone day-dreaming. 

With an open mind, Trevor allows his unique brand of electronic music to lead him, not limiting the creative process to stay inside a genre or follow an exact formula. Texture & Light’s sound represents the music that Trevor was born to make, and it continues to evolve over space and time as he is carved by experience, joy, sadness, and wonder.

Texture & Light live shows use synthesizers, drum machines, samplers, loopers, voice, and guitar to bring listeners on a fuzzy, deep, slow motion journey to the stars, and deep within themselves.

Trevor’s musical releases have been charted by campus radio stations across Canada, reaching the National Earshot! Electronic chart, the Canadian iTunes Electronic chart, and topping the CBC R3-30.
