Dark Matter presents Helicon + Man of Moon

Helicon blend neo-psych rock with sitars. electronica, ambient soundscapes and irresistible grooves to take psychedelic music into fresh new territory. They channel their love for 60s counter-culture and eclectic global music influences to create a modern and distinctive sound.

Since their beginning Man of Moon have been a standout live act. The Glasgow-based duo possess an extraordinary talent for cross-pollinating genres and styles but their sound is not hybridised, rather they are a synthesis of their influences; a pure sonic distillation of what has come before. You hear the mesmeric drones of Mogwai, the dynamic shifts of Radiohead, the harmonic angularity of Tool, the industrial amalgam of Nine Inch Nails, even hints of Pink Floyd’s austere and abstract lyricism. Man of Moon are so much music in one band. And yet they’ve always sounded uniquely themselves; there is deep intentionality in every song’s construction.
