Australian multi-instrumentalist David Gravolin (who brought you ORB, The Frowning Clouds, Hierophants, P.P. Rebel, Cereal Killer) returns with the second cassette for his solo project DAVE.
Following up on 2019’s Demo Tape, the new release is aptly titled Dave II and spans a 25 minute array of krautrock, 60’s psychedelia and hip hop beats. Largely but not entirely instrumental; the second track Footfalls features vocals from Caitlyn Lesiuk, whilst Dave himself appears via his vocoder on tracks like Fall in Line and Talk to Meeka.
Dave II could make for the perfect film soundtrack, it could sit in the background of any great skate movie, it could even surface as ideas from a lost Kraftwerk record - especially towards the end of side A. Dave is one of a kind musician. Dave II is a one of a kind release - it sounds very unlike any other music currently coming out.
Dave II will be out June 21st via a limited run of 150 cassettes on Anti Fade Records.
