  BINARY PRESENTS: LA LIGHTS - Binary Records (2009) | Forged during a year spent working at Hollywood Sound Studios in 2008, LexiconDon is the synthpop union of Alex Koons and Fabian Ordorica. Taking inspiration from their daily lives struggling to get by in Los Angeles, the songs are equal parts soulful heartbreak and late-night party jam. Their debut release, Pink and Blue, is a unique blend of singable melodies and heartfelt lyrics matched with hard hitting electronic production. Like something from a John Hughes soundtrack, themes of innocence and young love flirt with darker moods, creating a nostalgic take on the simpler days of youth. For LexiconDon and frontman Koons, moments of late night contemplation are matched by songs worthy of group sing-a-longs, adding up to something richer than your average dancepop. 2009 saw the addition Sam Gabbard (guitar), creating a live show that is built on the energy that can only come with live instrumentation. Following the well received release of Pink + Blue in August of 2010, the band went to work outside the studio. They played a series of successful shows in LA, including a main-stage performance at the Filter Culture Collide Festival. Coming off showcases at CMJ and SXSW, and also becoming one of Hypem.com's 'Most Blogged About Acts', LexiconDon's music was featured on various television shows including The Real World and Teen Wolf. July of 2011 saw the band hitting the road again on their High Heels Tour, a month-long string covering all of North America. The band is currently working on their anticipated followup to Pink + Blue. |
