STARFIELD

Hi. This page hosts all forms of music created by me, Trevor Refix Mervyn. I'm the creative force and front man of indie dream rock band Texture & Light (https://soundcloud.com/textureandlight), but I make a lot of hardware based synth music that needs somewhere to live too. That's what this page is for. Thanks for stopping by. 

The Long Version:

After spending the late 90' obsessively listening to industrial music, Trevor spent the early - mid 2000's as a DJ and producer of tech house music. Over those years he was fortunate to share the stage with some of his underground heroes. In 2005/6 he held a coveted Fractal Forest residency at the legendary Shambhala Music Festival.

By 2006 Trevor was feeling more inspired by indie rock than electronic music so he switched gears and started buying instruments to mix with his electronic production.

After spending a few years collecting his ideas (and instruments), he started working on a collection of songs that combined industrial sounds, indie rock melodies, and house music aesthetics with a distinct Pacific Northwest feeling. These songs would eventually end up forming The Hard Problem of Consciousness, Trevor's debut album as Texture & Light. 

After the album's release in 2013, Texture & Light morphed from a solo studio project to a full fledged live band that has now played shows through out Western Canada and continues to tour and expand. The band is currently hard at work recording their second album - slated for release in mid 2016. 

Trevor's modus operandi in his productions is combining hardware synthesis, field recordings, and acoustic instruments to create music that is equally suited to both inner and outer space.
