About Omniverse

There is more than one artist with this name: 1) Omniverse is a one-man, many-machines band based in Seattle. The man behind the machines is Todd Wallar, but Omniverse better describes the omnivorous, omnidirectional scope of sonic influence in his music. Disparate sonic threads are woven into Omniverse’s downtempo grooves with a down-home texture, lending a rich, full flavor to his latest release, Dandelion. While mostly instrumental, the music of Omniverse covers a broad spectrum of sonic goodness: trip-hop beats, 60s influenced lounge music, drum and bass, post-rock mood music, and downtempo grooves. Influences include the soundtrack music of Ennio Morricone, Lalo Schifrin, and Bernard Herrmann; the high velocity electronic mixes of: Amon Tobin, DJ Spooky, Oval, µ-Ziq, and Squarepusher; and the modern indie rock pioneers of Mogwai, Tortoise, Jim O'Rourke, Stereolab, Cornelius. The music of Omniverse has appeared on several compilation projects as well as in independent short films and the feature film, The Matrix Revisited. Six Omniverse tracks have been included in the new Ultimate Matrix Collection DVD box set.
