The Sense of Sight

Boxy Tease

Tomorrow will bring something new, so leave today as a memory

Finally they stopped babbling and started enjoying the afterlife, which would also be a brief misery

The Machine Stops was probably the first science fiction story I ever read. I must have been 10 or 11 and I was sat in an aunt’s front room, rather bored. I picked up a Reader’s Digest compilation and this was the first story. I didn’t move for couple of hours. The story was written by E. M. Forster; it was first published back in 1909 when airships, telegraphy and telephony were state of the art (i.e. before mass radio broadcasting and television).
He described a world where people live a sedentary and solitary life, communicating with others almost entirely through The Machine; which also caters for their needs: food, water and energy is delivered to them. People don’t need to leave their homes, so they rarely do. They live to share ideas and opinions, which are usually rather shallow because they are not rooted in real experiences or deep learning. Does this sound familiar? Anyway, I think you can tell from the title that this comfortable state of affairs does not last…

The Machine Stops

A hard-hitting hip hop tension track driven by low piano, bold brass, dark strings, and pounding drums. Built for dramatic, argumentative moments in reality TV, it delivers an intense and confrontational energy with urban grit and cinematic punch

Hei!

It's difficult to categorize my music into just one genre. It draws influence from trip hop, breakbeat, instrumental and abstract hip hop, heavy rock, techno, minimal, sound art, contemporary, glitch, and more!

I admire many artists, and you might detect their influence in my work. Among the best are Daft Punk and Massive Attack, followed by 90s Ninja Tune artists like Amon Tobin, DJ Vadim, The Herbaliser, and Kid Koala. I've had the pleasure of seeing many of them live at the legendary Ilosaari Rock festivals. I also appreciate French hip hop, particularly Le Peuple de l'herbe. Other inspirations include The Prodigy, Portishead, DJ Krush, DJ Shadow, Gorillaz, Moby, Mono, Thievery Corporation, Future Sound of London, and more. My taste spans from acid jazz and funk to lo-fi and even punk or hard metal, depending on my mood.

I've been making music since the early 2000s, starting with MadTracker software (I am fine with the program name). A few years ago, I transitioned to music production with Ableton Live 10, and I'm currently using version 12. Some of my tracks are experimental, stemming from explorations over the past 20 years, while others are entirely new compositions. This experimentation is perhaps influenced by my background in research—I'm eager to explore new territories, including music.

Nature is my second passion. I tend to a micro-farm in the summer, raising sheep and chickens and restoring it to its traditional biohabitat. In the winter, I evade to the city and brood there, craving for the countryside's spring, summer, and autumn... or dreaming being in hot and sunny place by a sea or river...

I'm open to collaborations, akin to scientific endeavors where novel and exciting outcomes emerge from teamwork. Feel free to reach out!

Lastly, I want to express my gratitude to my SoundCloud friends, website visitors, and music listeners. This community is truly remarkable!
