Ooah And MartyParty Join Forces To Create PANTyRAiD
Debut Album Coming Soon
PANTyRAiD |
PANTyRAiD is the product of two music producers who met on the West Coast, brought together by their shared appreciation for well produced dance music. Joining forces sometime in 2005, Martin Folb (aka MartyParty) invited his now partner-in-crime Josh Mayer (aka Ooah, and one third of The Glitch Mob) to his Manifesto Gathering – a small music festival he and friends organize annually in Mal Pais, Costa Rica. Bonding over a shared appreciation for the art of songwriting, rather than the typical "club track" production, the two inevitably set off to write material together, forming under the moniker PANTyRAiD. Due to geographic circumstances, the two began by sending tracks back and forth online, finally joining forces face-to-face during many studio sessions in Los Angeles where they wrote the first part of their debut album, The Sauce. Transplanting to Brooklyn in 2008, the duo completed the second half of their album shortly thereafter.
PANTyRAiD creates songs that each hold their own unique character and intention, with the ability to drift over into both the classical and electronic genres. With constant variations in beat, and an overwhelming palette of instrumentation, audio tricks, melodies, and techniques, PANTyRAiD's production reflects close attention to detail, taking their audience along a lavishly ambient electronic journey. The fusion between Ooah and MartyParty revisits the power of melodic and instrumental composition, together inventing a formula for producing intense club tracks that unite gorgeous, electronic soundscapes with hard-hitting, grimy beats which reference hip-hop and dub-step, with experimental, global sounds that resonate throughout.
