Chasing Waves by Chasing Waves published on 2022-06-13T20:33:27Z Chasing Waves is the rhapsodic soundtrack conceived for artist Alex Israel’s exhibition Sunset Coast Drive (Greene Naftali Gallery, New York, May 17 - June 25, 2022). Composed by Grammy award-winning producer and songwriter Jeff Bhasker, it incorporates samples from radio hits, studio sound effects, as well as excerpts from Israel’s 2019 work Solo, a video installation in which the artist's holographic avatar performs a melancholic composition on alto saxophone. The track is divided into phases, each a reference to a different historically Los Angeles sound: from The Beach Boys and the singer-songwriters of Laurel Canyon, to roller-disco, dreamlike 80s synth and the paired down piano of Randy Newman. Mixed by Eric J. Dubowsky. Genre Soundtrack
