- Dave Amels
-
Dave Amels (born 1960) co-founded music technology companies Voce musical instruments and Bomb Factory.[1] Both companies are known for detailed and realistic mathematical models of complex physical systems. Amels also plays organ in The Reigning Sound, a garage rock band out of Asheville, North Carolina.
Despite being an inventor of influential digital products, Dave, a garage rock fan and WFMU[2] radio DJ, is famous for only using analog methods of recording. He designed recording studios and custom analog electronics for high end studios.
As a musician[3] and record producer, Amels has worked with Ben E. King, Lenny Kravitz, Mary Weiss of 1960s girl group The Shangri-Las, and Dennis Diken of The Smithereens.
Dave Amels relaunched the Cryptovision Records record label in 2009. Amels worked in A&R for the label in the 1980s.
