What Tomorrow Will Bring

Villagers whispered that when El Chalambra appeared, time bent sideways—clocks stuttered, rivers reversed, and memories no longer obeyed their owners. His presence was both omen and invitation: to step beyond the known map, to risk dissolving in the kaleidoscope of his gaze, and perhaps never return the same.

Live recording of my set at StromWandlungSchall IV / Altes Schlachthaus Mosbach.

An improvisation on Paetzold contrabass recorder, processed by a Pure Data patch, together with a pre-recording of Ciat-Lonbarde Peterlin, table top guitar, samples of bells, and processed voice.

The piece is intended as a walk through a landscape of sounds, reflecting on the different meanings of "Wandlung" (transition/transformation/transfiguration/transsubstantiation).

Huge thanks to Thomas Breuer @vactrolog for organizing this fantastic event which showed the wealth of positions in electronic music!

Soft Departure is a piece born from the need to preserve the inner fire in an environment where relational and professional dynamics tend to wear it down. It explores the gesture of quiet withdrawal, not dramatic, not reactive, simply the choice to stop investing where energy no longer flows. Built around a warm, enveloping bass played on my Crave, the track acts as a guiding thread through a soundscape that can be unstable at times. It evokes the act of staying present without being pulled in. A form of inner persistence in a noisy world. This is a work of conscious disengagement, a way of saying: “I’m still here, but I’m no longer playing the game.”  Soft Departure is also a tribute to those who choose to leave without noise, to step away without war, and to keep alive what doesn’t need to shout.
