Op de druilerige dinsdagochtend is er geen mooier cadeau dan dit kristalheldere ambient album van Helios (Keith Kenniff, ook bekend als Goldmund). Helios is altijd een garantie voor diepe, rustgevende kwaliteitsmuziek. Dat is met het album Moiety niet anders, en met een speeltijd van iets minder dan een half uur past het in de categorie 'kort maar prachtig'. Keith biedt Moiety gratis aan op zijn website als presentje voor de fans, dus er is geen enkele reden om het te laten liggen. Download hier. [...]

Urethral, gritty and bass heavy.. it can only be the husband & wife team of Mint Julep continuing their strong grip with everything marked alternative and shadowy. Permit the darkness continue . With music video: 'Days Gone By' directed by Noah Harris. BONUS! Video Direction by A Nice Idea Every Day Produced by Blink [...]
Always beautiful music from Helios // Keith Kenniff.
La plupart d'entre vous connaissent la musique de Keith Kenniff peut-être sans le savoir puisque cet américain est l'auteur du titre "Orchestral – Goldengrove v2" qui n'est autre que la musique qui a servi pour la fameuse pub Apple iphone. Mais ceux qui s'intéresse de près à l'electronica, à la[...]

Keith Kenniff har masser af jern i ilden. Som jeg tidligere har skrevet, udkommer han snart under projektet Mint Julep med sin ægtefælde på vokal, og der skulle også være et nyt Helios album på vej i år. Nu lader han også op til næste Goldmund album med nummeret Shenandoa , som du kan lytte til herunder. Albummet med titlen All Will Prospe r udkommer omkring den 14. novemeber (foreløbig dato). Det vil bestå af række fortolkninger af folkesange fra den amerikanske borgerkrig — en periode, Kenniff har en særlig interesse for. Tracklisten [...]
Cool-to-the-touch electronica meets epic shoegaze with the plugged in alt-pop of Mint Julep -- aka Portland, OR husband and wife Keith and Hollie Kenniff. Keith also takes the name Goldmund for his ambient, keyboard-centric instrumentals (we're eagerly awaiting his forthcoming All Will Prosper album - more on that soon), but the ultra-melodic Mint Julep is a frothy cocktail of synth beds, electro-beats and Hollie's sugar-coated, light-as-air vocals. Plus with all their arty, out-of-focus photos to choose from, we know that hipness is not an issue. Look for their upcoming album Save [...]
Mint Julep , the husband-wife duo Keith and Hollie Kenniff , has made the first song from their upcoming album "Save Your Season" available for free download. "Aviary " is a lovely, upbeat pop-track, mainly based on electronics and with Hollie Kenniff's dreamy vocals on top. "Reminds me of Cocteau Twins..." says one of the people who have commented the track on Soundcloud, and I agree. The two bands definitely work in the same musical neighbourhood. The Kenniffs are also responsible for several other interesting projects, - all favourites of [...]
Here's a trailer for The Last Survivor . It's an excellent documentary that has been out for a couple months that Keith Kenniff (aka Goldmund / Helios) did the soundtrack for. The documentary follows four different survivors of genocide in their quest to make sense of their experiences and move on. Soundtrack review is forthcoming. Share and Enjoy:
Pianostykker har en unik evne til at ramme mig følelsesmæssigt Solar plexsus. Der er noget universelt og tidløst over lyden af dette komplekst konstruerede instrument — noget grundlæggende musikalsk. De rene tonernes dirren i luften, når de filtklædte hamre slår de stemte strenge an inde i hjertet af pianoet rummer en autenticitet og grad af nærvær som tit overrumpler mig. Derfor vil jeg gerne dele nogen af de piano baserede musikstykker med dig, som jeg allerbedst kan lide. Vi lægger ud med Keith Kenniff , der er mester i at få billeder frem [...]
Bag Mint Julep står Keith Kenniff, som er jeg tidligere har skrevet et langt indlæg om . Keith Kenniff komponerer musik under mange navne og opererer genremæssigt i spændefeltet mellem ambient, neoklassisk, elektronisk og shoegaze. Men fælles er, at hans musik rammer en nerve af rendyrket melankoli og refleksiv drømmende karakter, som gør ham til en af mine store helte. Mint Julep er et projekt med hustruen Hollie, og fornylig udsendte parret en ny EP med navnet Adorn . EP'en indeholder en ny version af nummeret Aristea, som er mere [...]

( email | facebook | linkedin ) Like mixtapes? Then try The mixtape, Rafael Anton Irisarri and Keith Kenniff 's 17-track excursion for Future Sequence : You ever heard of Amanda Palmer ? We hadn't either. She has a new single, which you can stream on her Facebook page . The release surrounding it is, in her words, "Oz-themed." In the words of one (probably many) of her commenters: "I want to hug [...]
Keith Kenniff is an indie artist raised in rural Pennsylvania who is a genius with instruments (Guitar, drums, bass), in 2006 he received his degree in composition and percussion from Berklee. During his time in Berklee started crating electronic music under the names of Helios and Goldmund , and recently this musical genius created a beautiful piece for the up coming documentary "Last Survivor" which follow the lives of survivors of diffrent genocides (The Holocaust, Rwanda, Darfur, and Congo) and although I'm not really into instrumental I belive this is a beautiful song that needs to [...]
Tweet As you probably know, I listen to a lot of different music, - mostly indiepop, folk and experimental music/neoclassical/electronica . All genres have their wonderful moments. One of the artists who in many ways operate in all "my" genres, is the Portland Oregon-based composer Keith Kenniff . He's probably most known under his aliases Helios and Goldmund , but he also has a very nice indie/dreampop band together with his wife Hollie called Mint Julep [...]
