Purchase ‘Second to Mary’ by Ryan Sobb
Ryan Sobb is an Airspace Records artist. All proceeds from music sales are fairly distributed to both artist and label.

Ryan Sobb is a young songwriter with a weathered heart and soul beyond his years. Sobb has been playing music for six years, initially playing guitar in a number of projects that blended covers with original songwriting. He first cut his teeth in a band called Open Heart Experiment, a group he formed with close high school friends in Barrington, Illinois. After an enjoyable learning experience with that band, he moved on to a more serious group called Flounder Gus. The band gained local popularity and Sobb stepped up as a frontman and songwriter, citing influences by Pavement, Neil Young, Jason Molina, and Steven Stills as playing instrumental roles in his musical growth. Most recently Sobb fronted another project, Moonlander, again as the guitarist and lead vocalist, and stretched his limits by incorporating indie influences and female vocals. “These guys, Carly Smith, Ben Brady, and Ron Gierlach, are my best friends,” Sobb said when asked about his experience with Moonlander, “and the writing was exactly what I wanted it to be.”

Introducing Airspace Records

The Airspace is getting into music, and we’re taking it seriously. Since our inception as a publication, we have been dedicated to providing the best and most relevant content in culture, technology, and scholarship. A massive component of the coverage we do is dedicated to music and the community that fosters the musicians, engineers, and producers behind the sound. This is not a reflection of our specific interests. It’s a reflection of the orientation of culture—the tendencies of human nature.

As an independent online publication, it was a logical next step to start working with the musicians we were covering. Today, we’re launching Airspace Records, our independent music label under The Airspace.

Rock stars in mansions are no longer the backbone of musical endeavor. In the last 15 years, the world has experienced an independent musical renaissance that challenges our definitions of sound, melody, genre, lyricism, and storytelling. The population has access to the universal tools needed to create, record, produce, and distribute music. The result has been a waterfall of musical risks: some astounding successes, others glorious failures. Airspace Records intends to seek out the individuals who take those risks, triumphant or tragic, in a bold attempt to create something new and unheard. We work individually with our artists to help them find their unique voice and provide them industry standard services while respecting their musical integrity and vision.

    After a day spent wandering around the Louvre in Paris, France, studying the idyllic nude bodies of ancient Greek statues, photographer Léo Caillard got to wondering about the nature of clothing. Each of the statues represented the maximization of human perfection—the human body taken to the extreme. But most people don’t have the ideal Greek [...]

    From the Hoover Dam and the Burj Khalifa to the Panama Canal, concrete underlies the greatest of modern architectural achievements. But modern concrete, it seems, doesn’t hold a candle to Ancient Rome’s. A little history for you: the Romans were the first to engineer concrete in mass, and it was upon this concrete that they [...]

    “Balloons. That’s right. Balloons,” says the voice of a young girl in a video for Google’s latest endeavor: bringing the world online with massive balloons. The initiative, called Project Loon, comes from Google X, the experimental lab within the company whose sole purpose is to dream up big, borderline insane, ideas. Google X created self-driving [...]

    Thonis, the legendary port city that served as an entryway to the Egyptian empire, was long considered to be a myth. The tales of its immense power and vast riches conflicted with the evidence of its existence—mainly that there was none. Cities of such grandeur do not typically disappear off the face of the earth.

    Kanye West says the darndest things. On his unrelenting quest to become his own species of hip-hop artist, he has established a reputation as irreverent, controversial, and unapologetic. Though he makes time for public grandstanding by claiming a US President “doesn’t care about black people” or interrupting the VMAs, he remains mostly quiet when it [...]
