While he was born and is currently based in Jönköping, Sweden, Waveshaper enjoys travelling. The artist has performed on stage in the UK and toured in the USA, Europe & Russia. He is currently working towards a big North America tour in 2022, circumstances permitting. Outside of travel, the producer finds inspiration in soundtracks from video games and films from the 80s and 90s. Waveshaper’s latest album calls to mind the likes of Kavinksy, Justice, Robert Parker and Carpenter Brut.
Step into the world of dreams with us as we become ‘Lost In The Cloud’ with Waveshaper’s latest single. Opening with a few darker tones, the song gradually builds as a ship might as it’s taking off into the sky. The dark of the storm, the weightless atmosphere of the clouds and the stunning, light break at the end as we come out atop the clouds, the single encompasses it all. The Mainframe LP (which will be available in Digital, CD, Cassette, MiniDisc and, at a later point vinyl) reaches outside of the synthwave universe by adding elements like Future Funk, and even orchestral additions.
Waveshaper shares the creative concept behind the single: “Imagine Red Riding Hood trapped in the Digital Cloud, behind the Mainframe. How would she feel? What would she see? There is probably more to fear than a wolf in the forest. This track is about fictive storytelling that invites you to dream away”
