Skoi Sirius (born Shawn Lass) hails from the electronic underground with beats for the body, soul, and mind; his passion injects a cerebral element into the music that lifts his sets to a higher spiritual domain. Self-converted to the electronic side after a thick dose of jungle and drum & bass at the Ice House, an abandoned warehouse in Arizona in the early 00’s, he now walks the path of the underground, pushing boundaries with experimental music in whatever way he can. Representing his home of Seattle through the music collectives of his own audiblebicycleday and Michael Manahan’s Starborne Productions, Skoi spins potent and provocative IDM lathered breaks and downtempoish beats that take you on a stimulating aural voyage through several musical realms of being before bringing you back around again with a smile on your face and a groove in your brain. As of late, it is common to find Skoi layering many channels of ambiance and field recordings together, creating beautiful, yet sometimes haunting, pulses of sound.

Skoi Sirius will also be performing in the Optical 3 : Ameritronica Lounge from 8PM – 11PM on Sunday, September 27th, 2009.
