SOLAR YEAR is electronic music duo DAVID ERTEL and BEN BORDEN. Equal parts sound art and pop music, Solar Year emerged from the same creative community as Grimes, D'Eon & Tonstartssbandht--somewhere among gallery installations & late night loft parties. They use electronics & live resampling, creating otherworldly soundscapes--hazy atmospheres that float between Nordic electro-pop, serene New Age reverie, & the liturgy of medieval monks. Vinyl-only edition of 300 copies.
