S U R V I V E is an Austin-based experimental synth quartet, known for their atmospheric and brooding soundscapes that blend elements of horror-score influences, ambient music, and a touch of the nostalgic 80s synthwave. The group consists of Michael Stein, Kyle Dixon, Adam Jones, and Mark Donica, who together create a sound defined by its thick analog synths and intricate production. Dixon and Stein, in particular, saw a tremendous rise in prominence after they scored the hit Netflix series "Stranger Things," for which they won a Grammy. Their work on the show has undoubtedly contributed to a resurgence of interest in the genre and brought further attention to their band's full body of work.
S U R V I V E's releases, notably "RR7349" (2016) and "RR7387" (2017), showcase their ability to construct moody and textured musical narratives that defy strict genre categorizations. Each release often pushes the envelope in terms of sonic experimentation, with "RR7387," for example, serving as a remix collection that features reinterpretations of their music by other artists. "RR7400: LA041717" is a live recording that captures the raw energy and intricate dynamics of their concert performances. Their soundtrack work, including "Redline" (From Road 96), further exhibits their talent for atmospheric composition, underpinning narratives with tension and emotion. Each release from S U R V I V E builds upon their reputation as craftsmen of immersive sonic worlds, making them a significant and influential force within the electronic and soundtrack music scenes.
