A Rainbow In the Darkness Alex Vouri / Bass Mike Lehman / Drums Music created & captured by BOOSTER Original narrative prose by BOOSTER Mastered by Doug Krebs Album art by Andrew Hibben Design www.321booster.com “Terraglyphs” is an instrumental concept album performed by Booster, with an accompanying short story told in chapters. The seven songs were conceptualized alongside an original story in the form of prose. The sophomore album from the bass and drums duo presents a more refined and traditional studio approach. "Terraglyphs" is a follow-up album, both in succession and thematics, to "The Coasts." Topics such as climate change, loss, power struggles, and renewal are explored throughout the album text and recordings. This story found its way to realization through a new format that bridges the LP and streaming eras, an idea that Booster calls "Video Liner Notes." This artistic approach elevates the streaming video experience. It becomes a place not just to sell original music content, but also a medium to convey a complete thought in a novel way. All of the music was composed, performed, captured, and mixed by Booster. Hailing from the vibrant musical hub of Boulder, Colorado, Booster is a dynamic bass and drums duo that is redefining the boundaries of what a two-piece band can achieve. The prosodic songwriting of Booster is all about channeling emotion, feel, raw energy, and groove, resulting in an irresistible magnetism that captivates listeners from the very first note. Booster is two exceptionally talented musicians whose alchemy is nothing short of magical. On bass guitar, Alex Vouri delivers deep and finessed compositional performances. Drawing influences from rock, funk, jazz, and even world music, each Booster bass part is poignant and evocative. Complementing the bassist's prowess is Mike Lehman, a force of nature behind the drums. With a keen sense of time and timbre, Mike provides the heartbeat and backbone to the Booster sound. Their versatility is undeniable, effortlessly transitioning between steady grooves and explosive, adrenaline-pumping crescendos that leave listeners entranced. Booster's sonic identity is not just about technically impressive performances; they are storytellers through their music. Their compositions, accompanied by narrative prose, take listeners on a nuanced journey, evoking a range of visceral emotions and introspective reflection. With a DIY ethos to recording, it's apparent that Booster truly cares for their craft in the studio and on the stage. Their seamless improvisations create an air of spontaneity and uniqueness in every live show, ensuring that no two performances are ever the same. Booster blends power, precision, and passion into a potent package. While they draw inspiration from a diverse range of genres, Booster has crafted a signature sound that is entirely unique. They have coined their sound as "Meta Morphic Rock," since the music and prose are both self-referential and ever-evolving. A classification all its own, "Meta Morphic Rock" is a state of synchronous flux ad infinitum. Physically, this push and pull of the natural order is the same force that turned dinosaurs into fuels and stardust into men — it is sonic evolution in practice. The synergy is palpable, with both members complementing each other, resulting in a tight, cohesive unit that produces a sound that's much bigger than the sum of its parts. _______________________________ 🤘🏼Follow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/321booster 👍🏼Like us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/321booster _______________________________ #InstrumentalMusic #ConceptAlbum #MusicStorytelling #DIYMusic #BassAndDrums #NewMusic #NowPlaying #Playlist #Music #ListenToThis #RockMusic #Musician #Bass #Drums #ProgRock

Eagle's Dive - BOOSTER | The Coasts (2021) Official Video Liner Notes - Chapter Four

Alex Vouri / Bass Mike Lehman / Drums Music created & captured by BOOSTER Mastered by Doug Krebs Album art by Andrew Hibben Design www.321booster.com ​ “The Coasts” is an instrumental concept album performed by bass and drums, with an accompanying short story told in chapters through animated text. Recorded mostly live, the eight songs were conceptualized alongside a story. This story found its way to realization through a new format that bridges the LP and streaming eras: video liner notes. The goal in creating a debut record was to use the bass guitar and drums as fully actualized compositional mediums—leaving no part of the tonal spectrum (melody or dynamics) behind. “The Coasts” marks an achievement for the bass and drums duo not just as an independent release, but also as a new form of progressive rock utilizing a new format for presentation. The album is infinitely loopable, creating a seamless listening experience that keeps the audience engaged in the storyline. This artistic approach elevates the streaming video experience. It becomes a place not just to sell original music content, but also a medium to convey complete thought. All of the music was composed, performed, captured, and mixed by Booster, as was the short story prose. Booster has named their new and unique form of storytelling Meta morphic rock, a self-referential moniker for the combined whole of this novel approach. What is Meta morphic Rock? Meta morphic rock is perpetual motion over time—when acted upon by high heat, intense pressure, and excessively loud vibrations, the only constant is change. ​ Atoms sing, particles rearrange, tectonics shift, and new compounds form in the lattice. Yielding to seismic activity of this magnitude, timbers split, shelves shake, mollusks make motion, and meanwhile, the rock cycle spins on... ​ A classification all its own, Meta morphic rock is a state of synchronous flux ad infinitum. Physically, this push and pull of the natural order is the same force that turned dinosaurs into fuels and stardust into men—it is sonic evolution in practice. ​ As the moon pushes sediment into mountains, organic compositions ebb and flow with the dynamism of two cosmic chieftains based in Boulder, Colorado.

Leviathan - BOOSTER | The Coasts (2021) Official Video Liner Notes - Chapter Five

Alex Vouri / Bass Mike Lehman / Drums Music created & captured by BOOSTER Mastered by Doug Krebs Album art by Andrew Hibben Design www.321booster.com ​ “The Coasts” is an instrumental concept album performed by bass and drums, with an accompanying short story told in chapters through animated text. Recorded mostly live, the eight songs were conceptualized alongside a story. This story found its way to realization through a new format that bridges the LP and streaming eras: video liner notes. The goal in creating a debut record was to use the bass guitar and drums as fully actualized compositional mediums—leaving no part of the tonal spectrum (melody or dynamics) behind. “The Coasts” marks an achievement for the bass and drums duo not just as an independent release, but also as a new form of progressive rock utilizing a new format for presentation. The album is infinitely loopable, creating a seamless listening experience that keeps the audience engaged in the storyline. This artistic approach elevates the streaming video experience. It becomes a place not just to sell original music content, but also a medium to convey complete thought. All of the music was composed, performed, captured, and mixed by Booster, as was the short story prose. Booster has named their new and unique form of storytelling Meta morphic rock, a self-referential moniker for the combined whole of this novel approach. What is Meta morphic Rock? Meta morphic rock is perpetual motion over time—when acted upon by high heat, intense pressure, and excessively loud vibrations, the only constant is change. ​ Atoms sing, particles rearrange, tectonics shift, and new compounds form in the lattice. Yielding to seismic activity of this magnitude, timbers split, shelves shake, mollusks make motion, and meanwhile, the rock cycle spins on... ​ A classification all its own, Meta morphic rock is a state of synchronous flux ad infinitum. Physically, this push and pull of the natural order is the same force that turned dinosaurs into fuels and stardust into men—it is sonic evolution in practice. ​ As the moon pushes sediment into mountains, organic compositions ebb and flow with the dynamism of two cosmic chieftains based in Boulder, Colorado.
