VSQ Performs Modern Rock Hits 2012, Vol. 2

Sail

Los Angeles, California serves as home base for the concept group called Vitamin String Quartet. The group is made up of studio musicians who are brought together to interpret and record orchestra style covers of music from all types of genres ranging metal, techno, country, pop, rock and hip-hop dance music. While the quartet uses a wide assortment of artists and instruments, one fairly constant member of the group is violinist Tom Tally. Tally has been intimately involved in the composing, arranging and conduction of many songs on approximately 50 of the albums that have been recorded by the group. While the group is referred to as a string quartet, the reality is that more individuals are usually involved, using instruments such as violins, cellos, percussion, brass and woodwinds. The group was originally brought together in 1999 as an experimental project. They wanted to determine the effects of using classical style instruments to create new and different sounds on popular recordings. Early on, the FM broadcast station WWHK in Concord, NH would play the group's music 24 hours a day, every day, for a period of time. The popularity of the group's music has led to the music being featured on TV and in the movies. Credits include So You Think You Can Dance (2008), TV show The Vampire Diaries (2010), the 100th episode of Gossip Girl and the fifth season finale of Modern Family (2014). Throughout the years, the group has been involved in the recording of over 200 different albums. In 2009, the group stepped out of the box a bit and recorded some original material provided by some of the various musicians on the album Per_Versions.

Ask about me.

MKULT is presence, a state of mind achieved through sound— a transmission of higher consciousness through frequency and form. MKULT is Shelly Truman, a West Coast–based producer and performer from Port Townsend, Washington and Tonopah, Nevada. An architect of atmosphere and emotion, Truman merges analog and digital worlds through trance-induced production, shaping sound as a state of being.
Her compositions move through techno, electro, drum and bass, ambient, dark wave, synth-pop, and cinematic downtempo, blending glitch, artifact, atmosphere.

Listen. Be here. Be fearless. 

Stillness inside movement, chaos inside order.

A multi-instrumentalist and self-producing artist under her independent label TTwinz, Truman performs, mixes, and masters her own work. 

Her sound exits the stratosphere and is a starlink that remindat the intersection of science and spirit — immersive, psychological, and deeply human.
MKULT is more than an identity; it is a state of awareness — a visionary movement driven by altruism and the belief that sound can awaken collective presence. Truman channels intensity into clarity, inviting listeners into a shared experience where music becomes the pulse of consciousness itself.
