Exo (album)
http://dbpedia.org/resource/Exo_(album) an entity of type: Thing
Exo is the first studio album of Chicago-based electronic duo Gatekeeper, consisting of musicians Aaron David Ross and Matthew Arkell. It was released on July 17, 2012, on the label Hippos in Tanks. The EBM, IDM and acid techno album departs from the synth-heavy style of Gatekeeper's past releases, in that most of the melodies are performed by a sampler with a sound palette of high-definition Hollywood film sound effects. Gatekeeper was inspired to follow this HD aesthetic from an experience at World Heritage Sites which made them feel "really spiritual and charged up" to create the first track on the album, "IMAX." Exo was promoted with a visual exploration video game with environments designed by Internet artist Tabor Robak using the game engine Unity. Reviews for Exo from music journali

"Something that's interesting about Exo is that it's really a hybrid art-piece and commercial project. It's not an art-piece sampling commercial aesthetics, it's not a commercial project trying to look artsy – it's a really interesting hybrid. We're trying to push the artistic aspect to the point where it's confusing what kind of product it is."
