Maston is the moniker of the multi-instrumentalist, producer, and composer Frank Maston, an American artist known for his atmospheric blend of vintage film scores, 60s/70s European library music, and sun-drenched West Coast vibes. With a penchant for lush orchestration and moody soundscapes, Maston has carved out a niche in the modern music scene that pays homage to the past while crafting a distinct, contemporary sound.

Emerging into the public consciousness around the early 2010s, Maston's discography weaves a rich tapestry of instrumental baroque pop and art-rock. Over the years, Maston's output has included film-like compositions such as "L'Ultima Cena" from the exhibition of the same name, as well as hypnotic and dream-like records like "Souvenir" and the nostalgic "Swiss Franc." His knack for taking listeners on an auditory journey is further showcased through evocative pieces like "Ghost" and in the kaleidoscopic sounds of the album "Panorama." Moreover, Maston has demonstrated a deft hand at reinterpretation through various remixes for other artists, infusing his classic sensibilities into contemporary tracks. The "Darkland (Tulips Sessions)" release encapsulates his ability to revise and reintroduce his own work, showcasing his persistent evolution as an artist. With each release, Maston invites his audience into a realm of auditory exploration, draped in the warmth of bygone eras yet undeniably tethered to the present.
