Motek came out of Aalst, Belgium, in 2005, a post-rock band in love with the long, patient build. The lineup centered on guitarists Kim Aernoudt and Wout Roelants, with Steven Biebaut on bass and Ken De Cooman on drums; Frederik De Backer and Bert Delafontaine also passed through on bass and drums, and Rodrigo Fuentealba added guitar.
Port Sunshine is their 2008 album. "Tryer" is its calling card, a slow-blooming slab of interlocking guitars, the kind of tide that makes a headphone listener forget where the bus stop is. The band called it a day in 2016.
