The name was inspired by the synthesized triangle wave shapes, and embodies his passion with sound in all its forms Triangle Wave Records was born as a platform for his band Fake Furs, but it has grown into something more akin to a production house, where he produces his own music as well as collaborates with others on theirs. In the end, he mostly just wants to help his friends make and release music that they can be proud of 100%.
