A soundscape experiment using selective filtering and additional processing to help sonically balance seemingly incongruous elements.  The violin fragments were taken from a part I recorded for my last album.

Beyond Time

Pedro - Record Culture Magazine Launch Party

Home for Forrest Fang's stray tracks and miscellany.  Fang is an ambient progressive musician who emerged from the DIY-“cassette culture” 80′s scene with highly idiosyncratic style influenced by the minimalism of Steve Reich, Philip Glass and Terry Riley, the progressive rock of Jade Warrior and Mike Oldfield, and the traditional musics of non-Western cultures, including Javanese gamelan and the folk music of his Chinese ancestors. The rich electronic textures of his music are often complimented by Western and non-Western stringed instruments, winds and percussion, such as violin, Marxolin, gu-zheng (Chinese zither), Javanese metallophones and the Turkish lavta. Fang has released 13 albums over the past three decades, including two ambient soundscape recordings under the project name, “Sans Serif.” His music has been reviewed in Billboard, the Village Voice, The Wire, and Textura, and has been featured on nationally syndicated radio shows, “Echoes,” and “Music From The Hearts of Space.”
