Waves on Canvas is the brainchild of Italian composer Stefano Guzzetti. Following the much praised 7” vinyl single Angel (Vocals by Louise Rutkowski of This Mortal Coil and artwork by Vaughan Oliver) the artist has decided to work with many other well respected vocalists for his debut album Into The Northsea. On the album Guzzettialso handpicked two of his own personal heroes Ian Masters (Pale Saints / 4AD) and Pieter Nooten (Xymox / Michael Brook / 4AD). Guzzetti was born in 1972 in Cagliari, the capital city of Sardinia, an island of the Mediterranean sea. At the age of 9 he fell in love with Bach’s organ works and decided to takeorgan lessons. After receiving a computer as a gift, Stefano, inspired by Kraftwerk,began programming sounds and noises. His love affair with electronica began.Then in his teenageyears, musical influences like the sound of the electric bass along with the music of Joy Division, The Cure, Siouxsie & the Banshees, and a lot of 4AD artistswould also inform his own future musical endeavours.
