Quelenis is a musical journey through a moment of choice. At the heart of the piece lies a crossroads: one path is endless and mechanical, silent yet inevitable, embodying reason and structure. The other is a human, shadowed path—unpredictable, raw, and filled with emotion and desire.

True to Olttaoff’s signature exploration of duality in sound, Quelenis weaves IDM’s intricate beats along the path of the infinite, while the improvisational spirit of Jazz illuminates the dark, human side. The intertwining of these sonic worlds creates a labyrinth that challenges the listener, pulling them between logic and instinct, certainty and chaos.

In a world of diverging paths, which will you choose? Quelenis offers an immersive experience of choice and the depths of sound itself.

Well, this unusual track started with the rhythm guitar part, and each time I added something it took another left turn into the cosmos (hence the title). I wrote the melody with a synth sound I wasn't planning on keeping until I added a vocal...and suddenly I felt Star Trek theme vibes. (Or maybe SC's own Admiral Krank and His Mighty Spacemen https://soundcloud.com/user-766619428). So I created the layers of vocal harmonies using EastWest Sound's "Voices of Soul" which features midi samples of C.C. White (you're definitely going to be hear more of her on future projects!).  I'm playing all of the guitars, bass, keys/synth, and I cut the drum loops. I hope you enjoy this comic trip into the unknown.

Does mystical materialism exist? Is it a trend or a concept yet to be explored? Are new products being created under this label? We don't know anything about it here, but we've imagined that such a thing might eventually exist, though we don't know if it's for better or worse.

Approaching Mystical Materialism

This is an english version of my swedish original song "Jag lever i dej" https://soundcloud.com/patrikneriksson/jag-lever-idej-19vers2-wav?si=3636ee8099cd4743bd842a0e7d11c0bb&utm_source=clipboard&utm_medium=text&utm_campaign=social_sharing

It's in the early morning
Just before the dawn
You're still in your sleep
And you're breathing slow and deep
Outside your window
I can here the bluebirds sing
Soon comes the daybreak
And it's time for you to wake

I wanna stay with you
In your beatiful dreams
I'm a Genie released from the bottle
And when you're sleeping
I'm living in your dreams
I'm living in your dreams

Your clock starts to ring
But you don't hear a thing
You might be late for the train
I guess that I'm the one to blame
So just get on with the dreaming
Wish anything you like
I promise the best
If you just stay with me in rest

I wanna stay with you
In your beautiful dreams
I'm a Genie released from the bottle
And when your sleeping
I'm living in your dreams
I'm living in your dreams

Wish, wish, wish what you like
I'm living in your dreams

Rainbow dreams - LTP

An intimate fusion of soul, jazz, and rock energy — where warm sax lines meet expressive electric guitars and cinematic atmospheres. Each track is an instrumental dialogue between groove and emotion, light and shadow, strength and sensitivity. Designed for late-night listening, creative focus, or quiet reflection, this album lives between elegance and raw feeling — a journey through sound where every note breathes.

I love how SC brings folks together from all around the world. I've had the opportunity to collab with new friends everywhere from TX (wazzup Tom?) to Germany (proud to officially be called a "Lunatic" with Hendrik and Jorg) to Holland (cheers, Marco!)to Spain (the incomparable Ms King)...to Japan (trading blues licks with Keit)...and hopefully more in the near future.
