Thyne Eyes
18 January 2007 :: posted by Rchrd Oh?!
Thyne Eyes was created less than a year ago so their sound is incredibly fresh and they have yet to even play a live show. Ed UFO! is joined by his good friends Chris Echo and David Dubois. Chris Echo has been around in the Drum N’ Bass scene for years, establishing himself as a big producer of the genre. David Dubois is originally from New York and exported to San Diego and now San Francisco which they all claim as their home, lucky me!
I ran into Ed(UFO!) at a local bar/club here in the city and we talked quite a while about the band, the sound, and how music is changing as we speak. Ed started off as a Drum N’ Bass DJ and did quite well for himself. He then got introduced, as we all did, to the whole “Electroclash” scene and started experimenting with more rock sounds in his sets. It all went up hill from there. I have heard this guy spin and he sure knows how to mix it up and make the people dance.
The album for Thyne Eyes is in the works, and after taking a listen I can honestly tell you that it is going to blow up. Their sound is something that I haven’t heard in quite a few years. They bring emotion back into music and yet still make you want to dance. It is not your ordinary dance album. If their sound doesn’t make you feel sexy and classy, I don’t know what will.

OMG I use to be in love with UFO, I actually still have a picture with him. He was my favorite BnD DJ, I remember he use to mix in some Radiohead stuff. Aw his name has some many good memories attached to it: rode trips, all nighters, acid, speakerheads, ravers… carefree days. FUNfunFUN stuff. This is exciting.

beautiful melodic dance tune. i enjoyed the guitar solo accompanied with a electro mellowing feel.
