Instrumental alt-rock song with heavy funk, soul & psychedelic influences.  The drums drive and propel the song forward while the Rhodes organ takes a more tranquil path to give the song it's juxtaposed groove and vibe.  The layered guitars provide the tonality, tension and soundscape that weave in and out of the rhythm and melodies alike.

ARPRAXIS is a vinyl DJ, Techno, House and U.K. breaks artist. The music is electronic and genre-fused. Music from the soul. Inspired by early Detroit artists like Carl Craig, Juan Atkins and Kevin Saunderson. The early 90s Hardcore, Jungle and DnB magic makes up a majority of my record collection topped with hard-hitting gabber, techno and tracks from Detroit that still give me goosebumps…Red Planet ‘Star Dancer’ and Casey Tucker for example are sublime. Check the links below for upcoming releases. Thanks for stopping by.

Amidst the lush Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia, The Sleeping Cliffs unleash powerful soundscapes with amplifier feedback and pulsing bass drums. The music is a layered mosaic of fuzz drenched guitars, bombastic percussion, and vintage synths, melodically engineered as a turbine of soulful, rhythmic, electro-rock.  Todd Glidewell, the multi-instrumentalist behind the project, describes himself as “genre-fluid”, drawing from rock, indietronica, funk, soul, psychedelia, post-rock, and alternative. Wearing those diverse influences like a technicolor cape, his tracks consistently showcase a distinctive analog/electronic groove that defines The Sleeping Cliffs’ signature sound.

Electronica with a soul. Funky darkness with a heavy dose of melody and a film quote or two.
