Like the best ambient music, there’s often more to Metawaves’ widescreen drones and heady atmospheres than meets the ear.

Metawaves’ music is a delicate dance between dichotomies: at once moving and static, turbulent and tranquil, a combination of surface-level activity, and peaceful, undisturbed depths. On one hand is devastating power, on the other, pure calm.
