one half of ASSS

"Modular-synth whisperer, sound designer, and one-half of Portland-based, industrial-techno duo ASSS, Sean Pierce's solo work often shifts between pristinely-produced moody techno, progressive synth-pop, and more abstract compositions that are glued together by his razor-sharp rhythmic sense, brilliantly processed samples, and his heavily personal grasp on both synthesis and sound design." -Joel Shanahan

Soft Metals is an electronic music duo from Portland, Oregon. Its members Ian Hicks and Patricia Hall began writing and recording songs together in the spring of 2009. Inspired by a diverse array of synthesizer music, their sound lies somewhere between dance music, austere synthetic pop, and experimental electronic composition. 
Soft Metals is signed to Captured Tracks and released their first record, an 5 song EP titled “The Cold World Melts” in July 2010. Their debut self-titled album came out in July of 2011. FACT magazine called Soft Metals “one of the most accomplished and ambitious of the myriad new synth-pop acts coming out of the States.” In 2013, they released their 2nd album, "Lenses". They have toured extensively throughout North America and Europe. Currently the duo is working on their 3rd album.
