Pivot's subdued, minimalist dark pop furthers Amoeba's exploration of subtle shades of space and melody.
Bio / Background
In some ways, Amoeba has been a work in progress for over 20 years. Robert Rich and Rick Davies have worked together since 1980 on projects as obscure as the glurp-trio, Urdu, and the compellingly unlistenable Quote Unquote. On each project they found new timbres and common ideas, but their vastly different trajectories made it difficult for them to focus their efforts into a coherent recording.
As Rich's solo recording career took flight in the mid-eighties, they parted ways. Davies indulged in several bands including the Calm (with ex-Swell drummer, Sean Kirkpatrick), Truth In Advertising, and the Los Angeles-based ambient group, The Telling.
In 1992 Rich formed the first incarnation of Amoeba with David Hahn (guitar), Matt Isaacson (drums), and another Urdu survivor, Andrew McGowan (bass). In this configuration Amoeba recorded the 4-song EP-CD, Eye Catching, which Rich released through his company, Soundscape Productions.
