Electronics into emotion. Repetition into revelation. From summit's sunrise to late night lullaby. Thanks for listening. --P

Back to the '80s with the provocative video for "Softcore". CAREFUL, mature audiences only: vimeo.com/parlous/softcore
"Maybe put the kids to bed for this...perhaps it goes without saying, but the video—strung together with footage from cheeseball video erotica of varying vintages—is definitely NSFW. The outdated '80s futuretech glamour and cheerfully lurid sleaze is a fine combo for Parlous' dense but breezy synth voyage." --Ned Lannamann, Portland Mercury

"Parlous’ debut outing is a poignantly short EP of retroactive electronics, equally inspired by early ’80s soundtracks...blurred melodies meet growling basslines, as haunting arpeggiators enter a world of echoes, to evoke a feeling of subterranean and underwater worlds, as dawn breaks over some glittering city skyline. On all 5 tracks, there is a feeling of ADVENTURE..." -- J Simpson, forestpunk forestpunk.wordpress.com
"Sounds like it's from a more innocent time...looking out into the horizonless future" --MC Zirconium, "Project Moonbase"

I am still gobsmacked by this album! What a treat when you discover a new favorite flavor. I power my dream rocket with "The Right One" and surf the groove of "The Greatest". Highly recommended!

North of Niagara
by Mychael Danna & Tim ClémentA work of intense beauty and emotion that has only developed a deeper resonance over the 25 years I've been listening to it. One of my desert island discs. Listen to this music, you will be changed.

I don't listen to this often, but I never fail to come away changed when I do. Take an hour out of your busy life: this music's mission is to soothe.
