Portasound
Portasound are a new band who release their debut EP ‘The Second Renaissance’ on May 14th through Blood & Biscuits (Three Trapped Tigers, Sleep Party People & part of the Pink Mist collective.)
Portasound don’t do things by halves. Fusing soaring melodies, driving rhythms and wonky riffs they’ve created a genre bending soundtrack of instrumental electronica to accompany their own fictional narrative. Influenced by folk legends, classic novels and film narratives, they create a sense of filmic purpose in each of their songs.
The Second Renaissance EP is the band’s attempt to bring these narrative influences to life.
It contains the story of a great cataclysm, the ensuing battle between light and dark forces, the creation of a rebellion and the birth of the hero.
Brace yourselves for a high-speed 22 minute sonic journey atop a giant synth with the legs of a horse and head of a Minotaur!
