Great drumming. Way to make 4/4 sound like something much more complex!

This was a b-side we used for a split 7" with Menomena back in 2010. I believe the 7" might even still exist on Barsuk online store here: http://www.barsuk.com/w3.cgi?vwy=shop/bark098

This was actually the first song we wrote during the recording process of Negotiations. Benjamin was playing around with the idea of using a soft synth (Omnisphere) for the entire record and was using his first Omnisphere created backing track to test A/D converters on drums - hence the name "Converter". Although the song helped us choose the converter we used for drums (a now replaced Apogee AD16x), we ended up going a completely different sonic/emotional direction for Negotiations and Omnisphere was quickly replaced by an Oberheim Xpander, Ensoniq ESQ-1, Korg EX-8000 and Studio Electronics ATC-Xi.

Under the Botany moniker, Spencer Stephenson creates rich psychological and emotional experiences through audio. When he started creating his own music at age 15, he was enamored with Four Tet, Stars of the Lid, Madlib, and Dilla. In his late teens, he went through a heavy period of discovery with Psychedelic rock, Krautrock, and Brit-folk. "I started imitating a lot of those forms in my own music, sampling them sometimes, recording from scratch sometimes, but really just trying to bridge a gap between those worlds and sample-based hip hop, and I’m still trying."

On his latest effort Dimming Awe, the Light is Raw, the 27-year-old producer and composer continues dissolving the borders between his disparate-yet-beloved psych, hip hop, and ambient influences. Unlike his debut LP Lava Diviner, which peaked and valley-ed through a narrative arc, Dimming Awe focuses on the artist's ever-unfolding, present state of mind. As a former jazz student, spiritual/free jazz philosophy regarding what he calls “emergent” music has increasingly become a guiding light when he creates. "The more emergent I let my music be when I'm making it, the more I like the result, it feels like a truer reflection. I feel like I am getting closer to doing that with computer-made music," he says. "This album is a document of what I do, not a statement in any explicit way. I feel like I'm moving closer to a jazz underpinning that I've always felt, philosophically more than aesthetically…making music feels more like exhaling as I grow older.”

All Broken Down

Can you feel it rising up
following your breath
all of our dreams lay deep within

can you feel it rising up
and flowing back down again
if we open our hearts
would you let me in?

Romantic Era will be out May 18th

Pre-order available now:  

On September 11th, The Helio Sequence's long-awaited fourth album, Negotiations, will finally be available on CD and double LP (pressed at 45 RPM for maximum fidelity, by the way.) If you pre-order the record on either these formats, you'll receive a limited edition Helio Sequence CD called Aces that the band created to be played in tandem with Negotiations as a listening experience-enhancing quadrophonic companion piece. We're also offering people who pre-order the vinyl LP from SubPop.com the limited, colored-vinyl Loser Edition of the double LP--in this case we’re told it will be clear with dashes of gold. Both the bonus AcesCD and the Loser Edition LP are limited to the first 500 people who pre-order, so act now, as they say. 

We should mention that a limited number of the Loser edition LP and Aces CDs will be available at some indie stores but the only way you can be absolutely sure to get a copy is to be one of the first 500 people to order from SubPop.com.

Arsenal of tans
A mistress with matches held out from either hand
Arsenal of tans
Tick tick tick tick tick another automatic stick
Blow off, you blew away
You wanna see me every day
You wanna swallow my flames 'til another sucker lights me up
Scorched skyline for days
The neo-sororital sequence burned and frayed
Arsenal of tans
Tick tick tick tick tick a fuckin' automatic
Blow off, you blew away
You wanna see me every day
You wanna swallow my flames 'til you burst from the gut
C'mon light me up
Blow off and into space
Burn your tongue and get a taste
Heat the skin that strokes the flames
All consumed, dynamite
I'll see ya every night.


Speedy Ortiz - Ka-Prow!

We're a band from Portland, OR. We've been playing together since 1996.
