Aqua Ape started as an experiment in the studio. Scott Leever, the Founder, was interested in trying to mix Techno, with a Guitar Rock sound. Think Steve Vai meets Orbital. As a result, Scott ended up carving a niche for himself.
a new sound. This album is very experimental, Scott says,”listening to Frontiers now, I think, man I was green.” Frontiers did far well on the inter net, reaching the top ten charts on MP3.com, and Popwirer.com. Aqua Ape also sold quite a few CDs through the inter net. Not bad for a Freshman.
Immediately after Frontiers release, Scott Started to work on Aqua Apes new CD. Scott has always loved the old concept bands of the seventies. Rush,Pink Floyd,Yes,ect..So he thought, why not a Techno concept album. Using a Sci Fi theme, Scott set off to right, Dreams of Saturn. Scott spent close to a year on Aqua Apes, Dreams of Saturn, by doing so, he was able to hone in on his own unique sound. Look for Dreams of Saturn, by mid Aug.2000.
Aqua Ape will also be touring to help support the new CD. Stay tuned, for more info on gigs.
