You know I'm really just gonna totally recommend both CD's out on Install this week. I love them both and like kids I cant say I love one more than the other... What I love about this Greg Davis disc is how it's subtlety psychedelic. Greg really makes the harmonic drones sing here with infinite shimmering chimes mapping out a vivid and gorgeous soundworld to float around within. The album is comprised of three tracks and each is a journey within itself and over the course of the albums duration it's a pleasurable trip to say the least. I loved this a great deal on first listen and on the second I can say I truly adore it. It feels bright, magical and uplifting. Regarding Wave parts one and two are the perfect soundtrack looking out of my window watching the colours of spring while 'Rainbow Body' begins in a more glacial mode and slowly builds into harmonic heaven.
Dialing in from a growing catalog spread across several labels and a decade of work, Greg Davis brings INSTALL a beautiful new album: REGARDING WAVE. Admittedly, we don't know too much about how Greg made Regarding Wave, but we do know that he made it just for us, and we can certainly affirm that Greg knows the INSTALL sound very well, having mastered Wood-Land's Stone Circle CD-R last year. Musically this album has a shimmering brightness about it, almost like an auditory hall of mirrors where the smallest chime echoes and repeats kaleidoscopically forever. Over the course of three tracks, Greg produces moments of rippling beauty via polite tonal drones that evolve at glacial speed. Full of harmony and accessibility, Regarding Wave is not only a welcome addition to Greg's diverse oeuvre, but also a worthy introduction to his music for newcomers. The bottom line: If you already know Greg Davis, you know this will be amazing, and if you don't, prepare to be impressed!
