Artist History Imagine seeing colors and images everytime you listen to music. As if the music itself takes on a physical form right in front of you, different colors fade in and out, sequenced to the melody and rhythm. That's what it's like for elecronic musician, Sean Fry. "It's pretty annoying. Everytime I listen to music, I literally can see it in my minds eye, as if it's a visual thing. I think that's the way my brain makes sense of music." Well whatever it is, it works. Sean's music seems to have a distinctly visual feel to it, much of it would go just as well in the background of a movie as on the the dancefloor. "For The Good Of All Concerned" is Sean's latest full-length effort, released this year on Vex Records. The album features a slightly different sound for Sean, being a little more bass oriented and intense than his debut EP "Acrosluke Firewalker," released last year under his moniker 'Acrosleuth.' Blistering and exhilarating, the hard to find album will creep into your subconscious and linger there, slowly growing, evolving, changing the way you hear music. "I just was really into this idea of making music sound totally rhythmically intense as hell and incredibly colorful and beautiful at the same time. I don't really hear that too much in most music. I think really great electronic music is something that you can shake your ass to and then be able to listen to that same track on a pair of headphones while going to sleep and hearing it in a totally different way." Raised in Southern California, Sean grew up mostly in the Orange County area spending lots of time drawing. He was also an avid skateboarder and baseball player. It wasn't until his sophomore year in high school, when he would be inspired to pick up the bass guitar. "I heard Primus and it warped my mind forever." As a self taught bassist he played in a couple of bands, but mostly would just jam with really good drummers in the area. "I met this dude who was like 28 when I was working at guitar center, and he was just about the greatest drummer I'd ever heard in my life. Playing with him forced me to really practice and get better. That's what happens when you play with people who are better than you. You start to feel like you suck so you get really motivated." And then while in college, he discovered the possibilities of making music on his computer. "I found out about Aphex Twin and Squarepusher and Luke Vibert and I discovered that they were making music on their own equipment in their bedrooms. That was so far out of what I thought was possible at the time that I had to figure out how to do it myself. So I bought a bunch of gear and taught myself." As for the future, Sean eagerly looks forward to producing more music as well as collaborating with other musicians. He is also a talented artist and likes to sketch whenever possible.
