Info
Portland's Halcyon High merges cinematic beauty, chaos, and human emotion into an otherworldly audio/visual experience. Formed by Roger Anderson in 2004, Halcyon High's music is made up of pulsating guitar loops, hypnotic drones, and electronic effects with occasional vocals and customized video projections.
Halcyon High uses carefully selected visuals to help create a mind-melting experience. Footage from the Qatsi trilogy, numerous documentaries as well as homemade videos are spliced together and synchronized to the music for the most powerful effect. The videos are readily available on YouTube or at www.halcyonhigh.com/media.shtml.
Roger is also the founder and creator of Cool Waves, a music resource site dedicated to forming a community of San Francisco Bay Area post-rock, shoegaze, and dreampop artists (www.coolwavessf.com). After 13 years in San Francisco, Roger recently moved to Portland, OR.
