Decoder Ring’s music is widescreen cinematic combined with rich organic sounds and electronic arrangements in an audiovisual journey that is as expansive as it is moving.

As one writer put it recently “a lot of bands try to evoke emotion, these guys create it out of thin air.”

Decoder Ring’s soundscapes have premièred to standing ovations across the world garnering the kind of media praise that most bands can only dream of.

Reviewers have wrestled with superlatives as they tried to capture the sheer scope and abstraction of their sound “a flow of images and music that is close to dreamlike.” “a superb creation…so compelling and original...a mark of real genius.”

Stray Theories is the project of Musician/Composer Micah D Wolfe. Beginning in 2000 with minimal ambience & deep meditative soundscapes, heavily influenced by the pioneers of ambient music, it has evolved over the years into a fusion of layered soundscapes and beautiful melodies. A sonic journey of lush ambient electronica with touches of lounge, drum & bass, triphop, industrial and chill sounds.

The sounds of Stray Theories have appeared worldwide on numerous compilations, documentaries, short films, radio, multimedia projects as well as countless live performances.
