Thomas Greene delivers a fresh, distinctive sound to the
world of electronica. Combining years of live drumming experience
with 21st century music technology, his music breathes and
pulses with an organic energy. Playing the bass, keyboard,
and guitar, Thomas injects his music with a real-time, live-band
feel.
Thomas' new release from Stereotype Records, Sabi ,
is the departure point for his compositional travels. Tight
and concise, the EP flows with a melancholy demeanor, book-ended
by an electro-acoustic groove and an epic mechanical odyssey.
Equal parts laptop vernacular and Blade Runner -esque
soundscapes, Thomas' new work emits both emotion and intellect.
A self-taught musician until age 21, Thomas began studying
composition, performance, and early electronic music history
at Ohio University at Athens. After school, he moved to San
Francisco where he became heavily involved in the local music
scene, playing drums for a diverse range of songwriters and
bands. These included local indie-rock favorites Buddhakowski
and songwriters Forest Sun and Zachary Ross. He also formed
Plum, his electronica/jazz trio. It was during this time
that he resumed his composing, both personally and commercially.
He has since cultivated a thriving applied music career in
film, TV, and advertising in addition to his personal music
pursuits.
Perpetually moving forward, Thomas continues to expand his
musical vocabulary. Looking to the future, he prepares to release
additional recordings ranging from electronic dialogues to
guitar-driven tales and electro-acoustic symphonic scores.
There is indeed much more music to come from this emerging
voice of the 21st century music scene. |
