This is a concept album based on the idea of a constant ping pong between emotions and the rational part of me.

Modal Mind Corrosion

This is a track idea. Based on the PI number, where each number is associated with the scale and chord interval... And it's fluctuating, like those numbers, with the fluxuating tempo..

PI Flu(un)xtatable

Life can be a bit like an old tape recorder. up and down, stuck, released... different pace.  But as long as it is your pace, it's cool.

Tape Me Up, Tape Me Down

This is a bit of a story of a not so dystopian evening party. Commencing with a classy champagne, and then spinning, in unequal intervals, towards a less-so-elegant roller-coaster of forgotten debates, tainted phrases and dim feeling of wet grass glued to the palms... And still, a story would tend to repeat at times (saith the raven, nevermore…).
I used a lot of found sounds to make it more shadowy and dimmer.  It’s a relook at an older, never published idea…

Drunkard's Schizophrenia Flux

You can becme a wholetone mobster if you can commence to live the life of permanent tension with little resolution.  Particularily, on the others...

Wholetone Mobster

This is a binaural 8hz shot fully in C octaves to be closest to the idea of binaural (BPM, HZ, octaves, harmonics)

Biaural Telephatic Mashroom

Morning chat in Babel

Imagine an over the top, kitch type of a perfect weekend in the Swiss Alps, with a slightly exaggerated Geneva accent by my son...Based on the synthwave vibe, with only Ableton native instruments...

Cheesy Weekend Of Le Genevois (feat. Kaz) Demo

This is a short demo inspired by the flute improvising using the Japanese Iwato scale 1 b2 4 b5 b7. I find its tone particularly reasoning with solo type of carried melody....Here the idea was to make that flute slightly dissonant and a bit angry so to speak... Hence a beautiful French word, Emmerdé...

La Flute Emmerdée (demo)

It is a short demo of an idea for a more dramatic piece...I imagined a leadership of a futuristic (or not) cabalt mine, in the middle of nowhere, celebrating great results, against the sound of slightly underage workers digging outside.  I used the more pronounced melodic idea, with lot's of bass.  It follows a kind of minor pattern but with quite some borrowed chords for more contrast...

Cobalt Mine Leadership's Teambiliding Event

A lazy morning wakeup mood....Just relax and take your coffee and, take your time....

Lazy Daybreak

A short James for the Seed2Stage January, inspired by JFK speech in Berlin, and the Berlin school electronic music...With a more agressive synth improvisation and guitar played backwards...and some effects..

Ich bin ein Berliner (demo)

The idea came from the sounds of happiness of my dog - Flicka.  For once I used a happy sounding Lydian and almost exclusively multisample instruments by myself  - ukulele, cymbals, my daugter's voice with various effects, some African percusive instruments...The main motif impro with Push. Had a lot of fun with this one... ON the picture Flicka and Ribera del Duero red wine...

Ballad For Flicka

Wierd Noises (demo)

Earendel is the most distant individual star ever detected, located about 12.9 billion light-years away from Earth. It was discovered using the Hubble Space Telescope and later confirmed by the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) in 2022.Earendel means "Morning Star" or "Dawn" in Old English.

Message from Earendel

Flying Moon Dilemma

This track is a development of the Jamns composed for the S2S January. And is a short story, 100% real and witnessed personally, of a birth of the Mountain Witch...The video will follow shorty (or not).

The Birth of the Mountain Witch - orchestral

On every f-level

A soundscape and a colorscape of a 12 string guitar chords resonating in a small room

12 string colors

A short journey into the depth of a single thought..

IntoTheDeep

a short story inspired by a traditional Japanese folk theme.... Like a trip to the woods at dusk, to find and silence and the music intermingled with nature...It is sampled from some real Shamisen performance (just the timbre and ambiance).

Lead by the glimpse of Sakura

This is a concept album based on the idea of a constant ping pong between emotions and the rational part of me.
