Descriptions, Reviews, &c.

"Yellow6 is the solo project of British guitarist Jon Attwood. Yellow6 has at times been described as post-rock, minimalist, electronica, ambient... the reality is that Yellow6 has some similarity with each of those genres but is not so easily definable, using aspects of drone, repetition, melody, harmony, noise and silence to create absorbing soundscapes to drift off into"-Yellow6 Bandcamp page



"Raised on punk rock, Jon Attwood started Yellow6 in 1998 with inspiration points from space rock, post rock, electronica, shoegaze, & of course effect pedals. With over a hundred releases & a hundred compilation appearances over the years, Yellow6 has created itŐs own uncompromising vision of ambient soundscapes with a post angst undertone combining droning guitars with piano, synths, & drum machines."-Silber Media
