Arch Waves is drummer & composer Jaleh Negari's debut solo album with pieces mainly for percussion and synthesizers. The music whirls around circular meditations, drone based overtone phasing and minimalistic patterns.
The record contains a mix of solo pieces, such as the keys & synth-suite Sind [Pakistan], SKSP. Shifts On Take Off and Ocea, and more layered and collage ambient tracks such as Clouds, Sval and Inward/Outward.
Clouds is a track of three alto saxophones, while Gong is an edited and produced version of the original site-specifik work for 4 gongs and 2 synthesizers in the huge underground concrete space of the old factory, now music venue, Forbrændingen.
