W A V E S P A N:

Weaving elements of ambient electronica, dub, hip-hop, and experimental noise into immersive environments of sound. Like being somewhere familiar: and realizing you've never been there before...decaying cities, dying machines, cries of nature, and man's continuing search for meaning amidst the chaos of modern society...this is the synthesis of the analog and the digital; the union of man and machine.

Album Description:
"Definitely one of the classiest Monotonik releases in a while, we're happy to slip sideways from our normal Scandinavian/European-influenced idm sound into a more ambient, sonorous, consciousness-expanded universe, thanks to Santa Cruz, California duo Wavespan, aka Phil Garrison and Alex Lumb, and their great self-titled debut LP...Over the entire 49-minute LP, there are a plethora of high points, but many may be initially fascinated by a rare Monotonik-released dub track up front, in the form of the sparse 'Concentration Dub', before the epic 11-minute long 'On The Nature Of Consciousness' takes us away with almost Orb-like spoken word samples and some beautifully placed ambience. Other highlights include the mild paranoia of the JFK assassination-sampling 'Single Bullet Theory', the straight-ahead groove of 'Origin Of Species', and the marvellously placed groove of 'Momentary Bliss'." -Monotonik Press Release

Reviews/Comments:
"...quite simply one of the best ambient releases on any netlabel to date." -Milieu (Netlabel Reviews and Culture)

"Wavespan sneak a fantastic record under the radar here with their self-titled release...it changes from start to finish -- charting a course across the musical landscape. You step into it where you may and find something different each time. Fabulous stuff." -Igloo Magazine (5 Stars)


"...an excellent album, it sounds amazing, proper old school ambient/dub, the kind of thing that got me seriously into electronic music in the first place. Great work." -ghoul detail (the soundscape gardener)

"...your music is really fairly different from other ambient
projects..." -H.G. Fortune (electronic musician / VST synth designer)
