About Me

“ Ambient-electronic-soundtrackscapes”. This is one way to describe the comatose option. A project born out of the love for shoegaze, soundtracks and all things in between. the comatose option (always lower case) is the work of Detroit native, John Pulvirenti. Formed in 2005, the comatose option brings a mix between Orbital, Boards of Canada and Nine Inch Nails, crafting a late night dissonance to the soundtrack of your mind. The debut CD, “songs from the cold” was a collection of various tracks recorded over 2006-2007 at warm glass studios in Detroit. The new release, “warm machine”, continues with that evolution of sound, each song a theme to a larger soundtrack. 2009 also sees the release of “i am here, you are me”. The new single,“immolder” is featured in the forthcoming film, Il Tempo Dissolto (The Dissolved Time) directed by Gianluca Zenone.
