Kyri*s (Pronounced k-eye-ree-ohs) is a thirty-seven part instrumental band consisting of DJs, producers and musicians that span from Japan to the Americas on to Europe. The members come from all walks of life and contribute different aspects to the Kyri*s sound from programming to live orchestration to inventing new programs for its members to use. This is the ultimate musical thinktank and the music they produce shows the varying degree. Another interesting fact about the group is no one, not even the members themselves, know the names of their bandmates--they communicate only through email and the Kyri*s message board. There are no known photgraphs of the Kyri*s members and they do no direct press so they are an enigma indeed.
The ...too busy dying to live EP is a product of 7 years worth of work held to exacting standards and undoubtedly one of the most cinematic gestures of our time. Each of the six instrumental tracks embody a different ideal and have literally been sculpted into what you hear now from hours of work. Not only are the tracks musically different, even the very listening of each track is a unique experience because with no label to answer to, the members made each recording decidely fresh and not being "industry standard".
Culturally you'll find influences from across the globe here and the rules of how music is made will be thrown out of the window as unorthodox methods are used in it's stead.

It's true that it is very diverse musically and it's also true that each track has its own unique sound, but c'mon, 7 years for these 6 tracks?...
