О Abe Van Dam

Abe Van Dam, from Canada, first started releasing electronic music in 2011, but his affinity for creating music goes back much further. Citing early influences like Pink Floyd, Jethro Tull, the Who and while In high-school - Tool, Alice in Chains, and especially Soundgarden. In those teen years, Abe first explored song-writing, and developed a passion for putting chords together on a guitar... as well as exploring his writing skills. In the late 1990s Abe was introduced to electronic music by a friend, introducing him to compositional pioneers from Ninja Tune, also, artists like Amon Tobin, Autechre, and Aphex Twin – a catalyst for forming new musical ideas. A music production layman at that time, he did not release, but explored the electronic sound extensively. Moving on, Abe decided to explore sound design and release music as part of his compositional process. New songs feature unique sounds that meld newfound influences in various styles of techno and progressive house. The listeners are continually transported to another world... and it’s no wonder his fan-base is steadily growing.
