about

Portland, Oregon duo Kevin O'Connor and Lisa Molinaro create lush and evocative instrumental soundscapes under the name Talkdemonic. Formed in 2003, Talkdemonic began as Kevin's pursuit for new frontiers in percussion and analog sound. Lisa joined Kevin shortly thereafter, further shaping Talkdemonic's innovative style with her rich viola and cello arrangements. Talkdemonic released their 2004 début Mutiny Sunshine. In 2006, Kevin and Lisa went on to release both Beat Romantic and Eyes At Half Mast, and garnering critical attention for their ability to pioneer the marriage of strings with unyieldingly strong percussion and inescapable harmony.
Ruins finds them continuing to expand, stretching dynamic range from quiet brooding to all out distorted assault. Molinaro's scenic melodies accompany the ever present forward motion of O'Connor's steady beats. With a little help from Clay Jones and Isaac Brock in the mixing room this is Talkdemonic's most well composed and realized work to date.
