Biography
Founder of Airmodular, Cy Donovan’s innovative bass work for the bands “Paint” and “Aerovox” revealed his potential as a creative artist. The popularity of those bands led to a sizable fan base. Aerovox was fortunate enough to play at CBGB”s in its last month of operation. They will always be a part of rock and roll history. But there was always a struggle for creative control amongst his band mates in this his formative stage. As with most bands the struggle led to an exploration of individual projects and breakup. Now unshackled by the creative restraints of his former mates he has released an outstanding EP, “Fallen In The Void”. This stylistically eclectic group of songs marks a transition in Cy’s songwriting career Cy was a child of the post punk exploration of inner space. No longer saying f**k you to the world, the bands, like Joy Division, Echo and the Bunny Men, the Psychedelic Furs or the Smiths, that influenced his early career were seeking a different type of spirituality. It was not utopia. It was not an ideal. It was not something lurking in the unconscious. It was the spirituality of the void. Now Cy integrates that spirituality into new genres of music.
“Fallen In The Void” is a concept album, with music that deals with the emotional struggle that many individuals may sometimes experience as they try and go about their lives, all the while feeling trapped in “The Void” of an every day existence. However, far from a strictly gloomy assortment of tunes, this collection conveys a sense of reality, humor and promise - promise that anyone who wishes to, can perhaps turn their lives around.
Airmodular is set to release the first single from their latest collection, “Fallen In The Void.” The single is called " Livin Another Year".
