Slightly improved remake of a 2 years old piece - with a 3/4 measure at the beginning and end. Lead vocal done with Shevannai (aka Lara Ausensi).

Shevalse

The beginning was too beautiful, so I felt something must happen ...

An Unexpected Incident

This is supposed to be a sequel to "Phrase de la Lune descendante" (a bit more extensive)

Red Moon Rising

This piece reflects the tradition of minimal music from the 60's and 70's decade, namely Phil Glass and Steve Reich, just to name two famous composers I like. Characterized by ostinatos and moving patterns using orchestral instruments, weaving into a sound carpet which may offer new harmonic and rhythmic shifts every time hearing. Hope it works halfways :)
The difficulty is, to get a homogeneous, flowing sound with still enough precision to perceive phase shifts as rhythm texture without gliding into a slurry mud…

Desert Road

Another  piece with roots in minimal music, this time enriched with cinematic orchestral and choral motives. The shaker line gives a continuum structure which serves as a basic link to the different parts…
Based on a composition from 2003, refined over the years, never finished - because I got lost in too many parts and styles. Now compressed, focused  and shortened.

Music for two pianos, shaker and orchestra

A young lady with a musical clock hums a melody to encourage herself while rowing into a secret cave. She doesn't stay alone for long ...

The Mermaid Cave

Wanted to do something melancholic with felt piano sound, evolving into a more epic end.

Hi, I’m Martin, composing and producing music since many years now – just for fun, not as profession. On this site I want to share some solo works, previously unreleased tracks and more soundrack and cross-genre works in progress. Comments are welcome.
