(Exactitude is not truth.)


I compose experimental music that generally gets described as sound collage, soundscapes, or sound journey.  

I love collaborating for dance, film, or other projects.  Please contact me if you have ideas. 

My music is meant to take you on a journey through different places, feelings, and experiences. My compositions are generally longer than conventional popular music and are best enjoyed with lights out and eyes closed. My sounds are sourced from field recordings that I create or that are found online (primarily freesound.org), computer noises, and my instrumental recordings.  I find my interest in composition not in how I can create new sounds, but in how I can access the enormous collection of sounds available to create sonic journeys.

"A place where the unknown past and the emergent future meet in a vibrating soundless hum"

ANTI-RACISM RESOURCES: tinyurl.com/y7no53jf

HYPER OPAL is a Berlin based multinational post-rock, electronica pop-hybrid comprised of Marie Hoffmann (V4NT4BL4CK) and Tidiane Cacique (@Leave-Things) co-creators of @NordPath records. 

Combining the unique elements of their native lands (Germany and France) , the duo's sound is focused on the remains of humanity as seen through a technological line of sight, that is in part fueled by the progressive environment of Berlin. The moody vocals of Marie Hoffmann come to the listener as if her spirit were trapped inside the water, her soul wandering the woodlands. This combined with the passionate, sometimes rebellious, haunted rhythms of Tidiane creates a style of music some refer to as empathy driven "Tech Noir".
