The Home For Better Living

MOUNT CYANIDE (better known as Cyrus Melchor), a 2-time CLIO and AICP Award winning and MOMA NYC inducted Original Music Composer and Producer/Mixer of artists including Massive Attack, Blood of Abraham, Bell Biv DeVoe, The Prodigy, J Dilla, Camarillo Blues Triangle and Naama Kates, has released his first full-length album, “The Home For Better Living.” A one hour instrumental piece that melds seamlessly from song to song, Mount Cyanide’s “The Home For Better Living” is an experimental epic journey of electronic, post-rock and orchestral forms. Regardless of its ambient and breakbeat nature, all of the music was created organically with experimental drum mic-ing techniques, analog knobs and filters, tape and, most importantly, live classical and rock instruments and musicians. The album was recorded at Mount Cyanide’s studio complex in Atwater Village in Los Angeles by Cyrus Melchor and multiple studios in California’s San Fernando Valley (The Bank, Stagg Street Studio) by Hugo Nicolson of Radiohead fame. "The Home For Better Living" was meticulously notated and then played by members of LA's musical elite: Rich Panta of Very Be Careful, L. Shankar of Shakti and Peter Gabriel, Patrick Bailey of Breakestra, RAS MG of Sublime and members of String Theory on violins and cellos. Mount Cyanide’s “The Home For Better Living” was released digitally on July 28, 2012. BUY IT HERE NOW!!!!!!!!
