Details
Keser is the work of Scottish post rock electronica artist Kevan Whitley. He has performed solo and occasionally with a second player on bass. The Keser sound has its roots in the Glasgow underground guitar music scene of the late 90's which included transcendental bands such as Aereogramme, Mogwai and Arab Strap. Fusing the guitar style of that lauded era with synthesised beats has resulted in a new progressive form of guitar-based seraphic electronica. Ambient and ethereal sounds elevate subtly, building up into crushing waves and returning back again. The vaporous instrumentals and melodic chimings are only anchored by the electro beats and unconditional ambience throughout. This "music as a metaphor for life" mentality is evident on every song. The debut album 'Esoteric Escape' has captured both the Keser live feel and refined recordings into 12 tracks and diverges into the realms of post rock melodic electonica, sounds which seem to aptly soundtrack a person's journey. Be it through life or simply on a bus trip.. 6 billion people can't be wrong.
