Aaron Rossetto is the one-man songwriter, performer and producer behind Austin, Texas' Ask For Joy, whose layers of shimmering guitars, angelic vocals and expansive harmonies awash in reverb recall at once the fuzzy shoegaze of Slowdive and My Bloody Valentine, the Phil Spector crossed with post-punk noise and feedback sound of The Jesus and Mary Chain, and the poppy, harmonic sensibilities of the Beach Boys. The music is characterised by a fusion of the rawness of a strongly DIY esthetic with rich, atmospheric waves of instrumentation supporting a textured and dense dream pop sound. Ask For Joy has released three albums on the Infinitely Recursive Records imprint: Swoon EP (2005), Endless Space Unfurled EP (2007), and Life In A Coma (2009), as well as 'Fentanyl', the first single from Keep The Euphoria Down, expected late 2010-early 2011.
