S O H N - Live at Hype Machine's Hype Hotel

Hailing from Vienna, Austria, experimental/electronic producer SOHN dressed to impress (so to speak) for his performance at Hype Machine's Hype Hotel in Austin. Casually donning the stage accompanied by several synthesizers and an electric bass, SOHN's live show mixed the smooth, airy vocals of the musician with impressive keyboard playing and dream sequence beats that really make you feel as if you're adrift amongst the clouds.

The members of the electronic trio used their penchants for crafting catchy melodies to capture the attention of the crowd. The combination of analog drum machines and synthesizers create a very new world sound that epitomizes the possibilities for pairing analog and digital technology in live performances. In a world where knob-turning and button pressing are the dominant practice, it's refreshing to see some action shining through in this effort to push the boundaries of such a young genre of music.

I know it's late but I'd like to know how you wanna play this out.
The chemistry that you're letting go could have brought a change about.
If it suddenly came back to haunt us I know I, well I did my best.
If collectively we heed the warnings we'll be fine. Oh we'll be fine.
Oh we'll be fine.
Hesitation be hell be gone.
Take the wind out of my sails.
A cleaner slate on a blank page and let the natural come out.
If it suddenly came back to haunt us I know I, I did my best
and if collectively we heed the warnings we'll be fine. Oh we'll be fine.
Oh we'll be fine.
Trouble is as trouble does.
Trouble is that's not clear.
Connection needs an open line.
Connection knows no fear.
The red lines obscure my view.
The red lines jump back, back behind you.
But love lost and love placed Love blinded by folds in blueprints
Always seems like I'll never be left alone
long enough to be sure of where I'll go
And always seems like I'll never be left alone
long enough to explore the great unknown.
But always seems like I'll never be left alone
long enough to be sure of where I'll go.
Always seems like I'll never be left alone
long enough to explore the great unknown.
Long enough.
Long enough.
Long enough.
Long enough.
Long enough .
Long enough to explore the great unknown.
Hold fire hostage.
Come back to the rain.
And don't fight for logic.
It can be yours again.
Somehow and somewhere Over sea and shame
You crawl back to find out can we oscillate?
Oh, heart of mine, you know love is only blind if we
defy light for darkness.
Defy light for darkness.
Oh, heart of mine, you know clean breaks are make-believe.
Defy light for darkness.
Defy light for darkness.
Hold fire hostage.
Come back to the rain.
Don't fight for logic.
It can be yours again.
Somehow and somewhere over sea and shame
You crawl back to find out can we oscillate?
Oh, heart of mine, you know love is only blind if we
defy light for darkness defy light for darkness
Oh, heart of mine, you know clean breaks are make-believe.
Defy light for darkness.
Defy light for darkness.
Well I died a week ago.
There's nothing left.
It's caught on video.
The very last breath
The very last breath The very last breath
The very last breath The very last breath
In time an avalanche Will cave in on mines
covering all evidence The very last time
The very last time The very last time
The very last time The very last time
All this fuss over nothing.
Reinventing the wheel.
All this searching for something that's not real.
All this fuss over nothing.
Reinventing the wheel.
All this searching for something that's not real.
Well I died a week ago.
There's nothing left.
It's caught on video.
The very last breath.
All this fuss over nothing.
Reinventing the wheel.
