MARATHON


Simplicity can be a very powerful tool. Controlled beats, the subtler side of power electronics, a gentle blanket of manufactured tape hiss to curl up with. MARATHON listens like an ambient space synth excursion, but eschews traditional synths and sounds in almost every way ("III" as the primary exception). It's a curious excursion, and MARATHON truly does seem they are trying to lure you in instead of merely entertain you. I recommend reaching out....meet them halfway.
