Melbourne, Australia based guitarist Anthony
Pell has released his latest work under the project name of Apell. Beaver Street & Beyond is a highly creative and ultra-modern blending of downtempo
electronic music with guitars (electric and acoustic) and bass. Apell tosses
in samples, drum loops, saxophone and keyboards into the sonic porridge,
which is largely instrumental, save for a few vocal tracks and vocal samples.
Extended guitar solos... you won't find 'em. Guitar solos... not really.
Extensive use of the guitar... um, no. So how could it appeal to the kind
of guitar fans who visit Guitar Nine? If you are into the electronic scene
you are aware of the among of material recorded without any guitar at all
- Beaver Street & Beyond gives you a sense at how forward thinking electronic
artists can at least incorporate something a lot more human sounding into
their work.
CONGRATS TO APELL FOR STEPPING FORWARD AND SHOWING
