Pandable
Understated ambient music from southern Indiana. The synthesis of the organic and the synthetic.

Window For an Angel Window For an Angel
A nightmarish track from my 2005 album 'The Visitant.' This track is centered on DX-series metallic drones and treated field recordings.

In Our Memory In Our Memory
The last track from the 2004 concept album 'Mirrors', originally released under under the side project of 'The Rhapsody.' The only instrument used on this track is processed human voice.

Nocturnal Gateway Nocturnal Gateway
An ambient interlude comrpised of field recordings and found sound objects layered over light synth instrumentation. Track six on my 2004 album Lunaris.

Vibrating String Vibrating String
An older song of mine based around synthesizer drones. Track five from my 2004 album 'Lunaris.'

Amniotic Sea (album version) Amniotic Sea (album version)
Track two from my 2004 album Lunaris. It was recorded in late 2003 when I was barely 17, and my inexperience shows. In spite of this, it's a beautiful song, and, in updated form, is a frequent feature of my live performances.
Although my sound is often very "ambient" in nature, I don't wish to limit myself only to ambient music. My music transcends a simple genre category.
Rather than just stay within a genre, I prefer to work within specific ideas. As such, Pandable music usually draws from a combination of organic sounds and synthetic sounds, and recompiles the two into a synthesis of the natural and unnatural.
Pandable music always has a concept to it; an element of ritual or of transformation.
The Pandable project was born in 2001 when a then 14-year-old Jason Crowe began exploring sound synthesis through soft synths and his first synthesizer, a Juno 106. Since then, Pandable's sonic repetoire has expanded to cover a variety of electronic elements and acoustic instruments.
As of late, Jason has been working on his newly-founded CD-R label, Hidden Stream, and working on putting the finishing touches on his 2007 release, the ambient 'In the Shadow of Summers Now Past.' On the side, Jason spins as a goa and psytrance DJ, and runs a midwest area psychedelic trance production crew, Psycycle Productions.
