Meditations in Jazz is an exploration of a memory. Blaze creates a minimal composition rooted in tape loops, reflecting on a free jazz experience that still exists and unfolds in an abandoned warehouse somewhere in the old slums of a vacant city. Each of the four parts is an atmospheric contemplation, expressing different aspects of the same experience.
The first digital and 2xLP release for Folktek Records.

Some collection of sounds from the new Folktek Collection vol. 2 for Kontakt.
Years after the release of the Folktek Collection, we've finally put our all into making a new, sizable collection of instruments designed for Kontakt. Recorded and designed by Big Pauper with Arius Blaze in the depths of the impossible box (the studio of Arius Blaze), this collection features new Folktek works as well as old. With Folktek's venture into the eurorack realm we were capable of exploring a new range of possibilities - Sending anything and everything through all the pathways we've had at our fingertips. Then we took our recordings and cut records in house or our record lathe, or recorded to tape to add layers of delicious, unique lo-fi character.

This collection goes in a new direction with a focus of creating deep, rich, layered atmospherics. A blend of High fidelity richness with layers of lofi crafted using dubplates and tape, all easily mixed and blended as you like within Kontakt. We've also added visual elements to the instruments, featuring custom the animations of BPMC..

single take recording of the impossible box being played (http://folktek.blogspot.com/2012/08/the-impossible-box-official-post.html) = unedited and rather long.

impossible dub

Early work by Arius Blaze from a project entitled "Conversations with the Future Dead". Experimental oddity. I quite enjoyed this project and may consider putting out a couple of the tracks (including this) on folktek records - cut to 10" dubplates. I always felt as though it should have seen the light of day.

"Cungreyonic" = Conversations with the Future Dead (2002 album)

Unedited single-take Dub with the impossible box. Not at all dubstep.
