In the corner of an intersection in Columbia, SC where the debris from a car wreck between Kraftwerk, Trans Am, Battles, Air, and Daft Punk is partially scattered, you can find the sound of Devereaux. Not quite analog, yet not exactly electronic- Devereaux is a hybrid, born of a traditional studio recording approach whose aim is an airtight aural aesthetic. It's the sound of one W. Heyward Sims, who grew up perfecting Led Zeppelin riffs in front of his Emerson CD player in the early 90s, and now laments the demise of the answering machine. Cacti Pace, Devereaux's first EP, is the daughter of Sims's own pre-Google and post-Google reconciliation.
