About
Based in Brooklyn, NY, Lanes is an independent electronic music composer, programmer and producer who started out as a basement musician back in 2005. Having years of playing lead guitar in a punk-rock band, he had no experience with electronic gear until he decided to try his songwriting skills in electronic music.
Within less than a year, he has managed to come up with his debut LP "Smoke & Mirrors" which has been picked up and put in heavy rotation by KUCR 88.3FM Siked Electronixx show in California.
Two follow-up LPs, "Hydra Missing. Fear The Worst" and "Fractal Collapse", have received a few positive reviews in Hybrid, AbsolutePunk and Release magazines, as well brought him the title of 2008 Artist of the Year awarded by New York-based Artists Forum magazine.
The fourth album "Verity" came out in December 2009 and brought Lanes the winning award from Billboard World Song Contest of 2010 in Electronic/Soundtrack category. "Verity" has also recieved an hour-long feature on KUCR 88.3 FM,
with almost all tracks airplayed by a number of college radio stations including KLCC (OR), WRSU (NJ), WRUV (VT), KNDS (ND), WMNF (FL) and a few more.
On June 1st, 2011, Lanes has released his new full-length album "Chrysaora" which features a dynamic beat-driven balance between pulsing lazer-cut bass and out of control tides of ambiance.
He said it won't work well with sleeping pills. We'll see.
