Supreme Beings of Leisure return with their third album, '11i' a darkly cinematic collection of enchanting, hypnotizing songs. Sultry rhythms and understated electronica complement the sophisticated songcraft behind their signature sound.
The album is a song cycle about daily life that begins with the sumptuous prelude of The Light and seamlessly evolves into the concluding drifting-into-dreams track, Lay Me Down. In between are standouts including the wistful and melodic This World, Mirror and Angelhead (feat. Lili Haydn).
Supreme Beings of Leisure are an electronic / trip-hop band from Los Angeles, California. Current members of SBL are singer / songwriter Geri Soriano-Lightwood and multi-instrumentalist / programmer Ramin Sakurai.
SBL was formed from the remains of the band Oversoul 7 in 1998 when they signed to Palm Pictures. In 1996, Oversoul 7 came together as members Geri Soriano-Lightwood, Ramin Sakurai, (Bassist)) Kiran Shahani, and (Guitarist) Rick Torres released "Nothing Like Tomorrow" and "What's the Deal" on two compilations on the Moonshine Music dance label.
