SINE WAVE / HISTORY

Sine Wave |

Sine
Wave is the unlikely moniker for a very diverse and inventive
multi-instrumentalist, a musician with decades behind him as an avid
collector of prog, synth, Kosmische and Krautrock music. He has apparently
worked in a much more wide-ranging field than you'll hear on his Auricle
releases, which are targeted to those that love instrumental music involving
guitars, synthesizers and Mellotron. Dave Eveson lives in Mellotron country, and you'll find lots of
Mellotron on his debut, with a collection of tracks that largely reminds me
of music by French 1970s pioneers, stuff on the Disjuncta and Pole labels,
i.e. Heldon, Verto, Besombes, et al. Ilitch, Fripp & Eno, and Edgar
Froese are also good pointers. Related to that you'll also probably detect
some instrumental old King Crimson traits as well. But the Sine Wave angle is
different. On the second disc you'll find the focus is largely changed
towards synthesizers, and although some of the same comparisons could be
quoted, there's a much more Teutonic feel here, more tangerine Dream
influence notably, although it never just "sounds like". Although
instrumentally similar his 3 releases to date each explore different aspects,
with more short sketches on the debut, a diverse range of styles on the 2nd,
and just 3 big excursions on the third one, showcasing Teutonic influences
more. Like the name Sine Wave, Dave Eveson is surprisingly quite a
common name. He is not to be confused with a Seattle photographer, nor a
doctor at Leicester University Hospitals, nor the head of Eveson Petroleum!
... and, no he's not the guy behind the Celluloid project, even though some
of Sine Wave music is a bit like that, no Celluloid was an American. He, Dave
Eveson that is, contrary to what one person thought, is not an incognito
creation out of Quadelectronic either! |
