Esmerine is an experimental instrumental group started in 2003 by Bruce Cawdron and Beckie Foon, who have contributed to other Montreal-based bands as Godspeed You! Black Emperor, Set Fire to Flames, and A Silver Mt. Zion. Esmerine's music consists mainly of percussion, cello, and marimba, lacking the guitars present in other Godspeed side-projects. Esmerine's style shares many characteristics with minimalist classical music, and chamber music.

Listening to Kyte’s stunningly beautiful soundscapes, you fully expect them have been recorded by the flickering light of the aurora borealis in some frozen wasteland near the Arctic Circle. The truth, however, is a little bit closer to home. They were recorded in a tiny bedroom in Kibworth, just south of Leicester. Band members:
Tom Lowe - Guitars & keyboards
Nick Moon - Vocals
Scott Hislop - Drums
Ben Cox - Bass Official website: www.myspace.com/kyteband

John Jagos began recording under the name Brothertiger in Toledo, OH during the summer of 2009. He began recording electronic music in 2006 as Monoteque, an experimental project characterized by tribal beats and pulsing synthesizers. Influenced heavily by the electronic sound of Brian Eno and M83, along with the experimental characteristics of Animal Collective, Caribou, and Yeasayer, Jagos recorded many tracks throughout the final half of 2009. After he released the Apache Feathers EP on the Modicum of Silence net-label, he soon began work on the Vision Tunnels EP.
