Of The Trees

By

Tyler Coombs is a Denver-based producer, visual artist, and label founder originally from Portland, Maine, working under the name Of The Trees. Over the past decade, he has built one of the most distinctive voices in electronic bass music — not by chasing trends, but by constructing entire worlds around his releases and treating every project as a chapter in a longer story.

His sound blends dubstep, ambient electronica, hip-hop, and downtempo into something immersive and patient — spacious chords, expansive synth design, and heavy 808 percussion shaped into compositions that function less as tracks and more as environments.

Moonglade Park — released February 13, 2026 — is the fullest expression of everything Coombs has been building toward. A ten-track concept album rooted in environmental preservation, intentional living, and imagination as refuge, it is designed to be experienced as one continuous journey from “Park Entrance (Intro)” through “Park Exit (Outro),” each track a trail through a fictional national park. The rollout matched the ambition: a social media wipe, a cryptic retro-styled park website, a hidden phone number playing a recorded message, and a pre-save link delivered by text. Collaborations with EARTHGANG, Elohim, Player Dave, and Sophie Marks are placed as chapters rather than features — each one serving the arc rather than interrupting it. Coombs has called it his first truly “complete” release, the product of what he describes as the highest highs and lowest lows of a transformative period in his life.

Of The Trees doesn’t make background music. He builds ecosystems — sonic, visual, communal — and Moonglade Park is the most fully realized one yet.
