Experimental Sounds

Show all (8)
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. W A V E S P A N was formed in 2003 by Phil Garrison and Alex Lumb.
