ABOUT
Formed on the remains of the band Deep Sea Divers, Float emerged around the start
of the new millenium. Discarding the traditional rock-band line-up from Deep Sea Divers,
and aiming for a new approach with synths, drum machines and on-line effects, Float started
recording direct-to-CD improvisations coming along in their minds. The 3 CD's featured on
this website document the transition from almost raw direct-to-CD recording as on
"3 become 1", to the more sophisticated remixes on "Further Investigation" with over-dubs,
voices and added effects - but still based on "moments".
You can get your own impression of our work by listening through the samples on this website, lossless flac's of every released number. Hopefully they
serve as an aperitif for further investigation...
