Eleh-Homage to the Pointed Waveforms



Uncompromising Minneapolis label Taiga Records is serving up a new release from Eleh called Homage to Pointed Waveforms. You can listen to an audio sample here. The waveforms must be delighted!

From Taiga:
Homage to the Pointed Waveforms is the final release in a series dedicated to specific sound waves. Following ...Square... and ...Sine..., ...Pointed Waveforms explores composition with triangle and sawtooth waves through studies of a dense modular system. Variations were performed live in Barcelona, Brussels and Madrid during spring 2011 but this LP is the next step. Side A contains a version of the piece that was conceived for the shows, which evolved during the three performances as it was continually reworked. Mixed with travel memories, the two tracks on side B are reflections on the arrangement. Presented as a hand-numbered edition of 500 direct metal mastered 200g virgin vinyl LPs in custom 2-color letterpress jackets designed by John Brien.
