SEEKING
Vocalist, Bass Guitar, Keyboard, Piano, Electronic Music.ABOUT
We're an electronic/"chill-wave"/alternative band out of San Jose, CA. There are two of us, both in our mid 20's, college graduates with day jobs. However, we love making music together and have both a studio at home (recording) and in Fremont (rehearsal) that we use on evenings and weekends.
One plays bass, guitar, drums and a small amount of piano/keys (not all at once, we tend to switch around based on parts we've written) and the other plays drums, piano and bass, and is the producer/recorder/mixer/master(er).

Influences
I would compare our sound to the following bands:
M83, The Neighbourhood, Foster the People, with a tiny hint of hip-hop influence (mostly in the beats). We like to make dance music, but with a blend of live instruments and produced beats/ambient tracks.
Members Of Band
Two mid-20's, college-educated musicians who have been making music since middle school together.
EQUIPMENT
We have guitars (also bass), amps, mics, pro audio and recording equipment, gig-ready PA and everything else we would need to make music. However, we are welcome to new sounds and new instruments, so don't hesitate to bring it up if you have something original to offer.
MUSIC

City Lights
City Lights Album: Demo Genre: Alternative
This is a very rough demo we recorded as a full band in one take. It's also before we were able to mix and master it, nor did we add any of our samples/synths.
-
Audio Pilot
Audio Pilot Genre: Electronic
This is more of our aim - ambient music and melodic chord progressions that start soft, but build intensely. This song is incomplete, only having the chorus and verse.
