Petrol

Anenon is the project of Brian Allen Simon, a Los Angeles based saxophonist, producer, artist, RBMA Madrid alum and Non Projects record label owner. He occupies the gray area between jazz, classical, ambient and electronic musics, taking elements of these styles and creating his own, hybrid sound.
On March 4th, Anenon will release his third studio full-length, the Petrol LP, on Friends of Friends Music, the proper follow-up to his Camembert EP that was shared by the label in October 2015.
The concept for Petrol was born out of a series improvisational sessions between Anenon and friend, drummer and collaborator Jon-Kyle Mohr, who also plays drums on the recordings.
As Simon & Mohr continued to build and explore their sound, the music began to take on aspects of life in Los Angeles. Anenon explains, an Angeleno is "one who understands the beauty of distance and the consistencies of irregularity" and those juxtapositions can be found throughout Petrol, a spacious album that needs to be lived in to be believed.
From the frenetic saxophone rifts, string arrangements and breakneck drum patterns evoking the kinetic energy of the LA freeway on songs like "Lumina" and "Once", to the ambient moments of early morning solitude on opener "Body" and "Panes", Los Angeles is a central theme throughout Petrol.
