Dark Rift

24-year old weirdo performance artist Travis Egedy, aka Pictureplane, obsesses over the cosmos, 90s house music, collective consciousness, and mind-altering chemicals you've never heard of. Much like his interests, Pictureplane's music is strange and boundless and totally righteous.

Having cut his teeth on raging tours with HEALTH, a collab with Beirut's Zach Condon and killer remixes for Crystal Castles, HEALTH, and Thieves Like Us, Pictureplane delivers his first full-length for Lovepump, Dark Rift.

Grimy synths, broken beats, and bucolic vocals collide somewhere between early 90s house music and the gnarly soundscapes of Black Dice to forge a sound that's wholly unique and endlessly exciting. It's exceedingly rare to find dance music that transcends the cold and robotic, but on Dark Rift Pictureplane does just that:churning intricate electronic jams out of his near-legendary Denver warehouse space known as Rhinoceropolis. The music feels at once personal and cosmically expansive.
