Mythos Biography
Canadian duo Mythos synthesize dance beats, various world musics, and new age sensibilities in a manner akin to an Enigma or Deep Forest. Bob D'Eith (keyboards) and Paul Schmidt (guitar) grew up in Vancouver, both receiving classical training on their respective instruments; D'Eith had previously played in the short-lived alternative-rock band Rhymes With Orange. Dissatisfied with the constraints of rock & roll, D'Eith joined up with Schmidt to record more film-oriented music; the result was their Juno-nominated, Canada-only 1997 debut, Introspection. Mythos then signed with Higher Octave and released their self-titled international debut in 1998. Reality of a Dreamer followed two years later, concentrating mostly on Western musical forms and featuring vocalists Christine Duncan and Jennifer Scott. ~ Steve Huey, All Music Guide
