The Human Circuit
The Human Circuit is an Alt-Pop, Psych-Rock band from Austin, Texas with catchy orchestral grooves ranging from the mystic vibes of David Bowie to the intricate arrangements of Arcade Fire.
Kay Odyssey
Part glam, part mystic romance, Austin's Kay Odyssey stir up influences from Cocteau Twins, Siouxsie and the Banshees, Wire, Pil, Bow Wow Wow, The Who and T-Rex. Led by singer/guitarist Kristina Boswell, previously of No Mas Bodas.
my education
Austin, Texas-based My Education formed in 1999 and has released eight full-length albums. The band's newest album, Schiphol, was produced by Mike McCarthy (Spoon, Trail of Dead, Patty Griffin) at Public HiFi studios in Austin.
THE ANGELUS
Majestic sounds that build like storm systems and burst into bone-rattling sonic downpours steeped in the Southern Gothic tradition, and combining the bombast of post-rock, the tenor of Appalachian folk, and vernacular of gospel song-craft.

The Angelus Biography
In 2017, The Angelus gave us their second full-length offering, 'There Will Be No Peace', a foreboding and despairing narrative told through carefully interwoven compositions of dark hymnal doom. Pretty. Bleak. A pre-apocalyptic telling of coming times that garnered much critical acclaim.
Following the success of the album, bandleader Emil Rapstine was invited to record with the post-doom, atmospheric black metal band Dead To A Dying World, alongside such luminary guests as Jarboe (ex-SWANS) and Thor Harris (ex-SWANS). Emil subsequently spent the summer touring with the band as their album Elegy (Profound Lore) was met with one stellar review after another.
Now a full-time member of Dead To A Dying World, Emil has not put The Angelus on the back burner. 2019 saw the release of their original song "The Young Birds" and, a cover of Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds' "The Weeping Song". Now the band has completed their next full-length album, "Why We Never Die".
"Why We Never Die" was recorded by Alex Bhore (formerly of This Will Destroy You) in Dallas, TX at Elmwood Recording, which belongs to Grammy Award winning producer John Congleton (SWANS, Chelsea Wolfe, St. Vincent, Angel Olsen). The album was mastered by Sarah Register (Protomartyr, Horse Lords, Lower Dens).
Influences the band cites include SWANS, Wovenhand, Anna von Hausswolff, Windhand, Lungfish, Tinariwen, & Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds.
The Angelus take their name from the painting by Jean-François Millet, inspired by the feeling of lonesome supplication the painting conveys.
