Influences
Events, life, family, childhood or the lack of it, danny elfman and the splendid univers of tim burton, steve reich, radiohead of course, bartok the works for piano and orchestra, Tschaikowsky, Igor Strawinsky l'oiseau de feu, led zeppelins physical graffity and the song remains the same, and the fantasm of Joanna Newsom, Björk, John Coltrane for sure, and the sound of the new york jazz vibe present, kurt rosenwinkel, portishead, the flaming lips, everyone on our top friends list and many more
A slowly drowning classical ensemble, posthumously covered by a precious little indie-pop outfit, and then resurrected ninety years later by trip-hop band Portishead
Or if Sigur Ros wrote an album in a Manhattan storm while going through the final stages of drug rehabilitation for opium
Ave try to lyrically raise classic themes to a spiritualistic, dreaming level.
They create compositions which vary from imaginative & condensed themes to acoustic
elements with an inward-looking search and sudden vigorous explosions.
This way -smouldering in the underground- Ave create their own soundlevel. Crackling sounds, treble strings & voice makes the 17'th century's classical style come alive in
a new updated version.
When playing live Ave use accessories inspired by the 1930'ies. The listener is thrown back into a comfortable thirties jazzclub-style - yet with music from quite a different universe.
Their latest EP is entitled "Follow your Saint". Sit back
- Let it grab hold of you.
Enjoy the music and enjoy the silence...
"Everything is in place here -- the sounds, the songs, the production, the salesmanship. Follow Your Saint is brooding, incorporates modern touches with strange noises, yet doesn't abandon guitars nor their influences. If your poison is melancholia set off with analog bleeps and artsy melody lines, these Scandinavians will be a safe, familiar addition to your collection. (Damon Murrah // 12/7/06) Space City Rock"
