‘I’ll Never be Found’, with Spoken word by Chanelle Marzouk

The initial seed of inspiration emerged from a improv jam session with Daniel McDermott when he came to visit back in 2016. I built on that idea by layering the bassline with 3 slightly different arpeggios. The slightly different rhythms of the basslines was a accident but I liked it so much I did not change it. At times causes the bass to sound like it is conflict with itself. My friend Chanelle Marzouk wrote and performed the spoken word part. I effected her voice with a formant filter to make it sound darker, robotic and masculine. I also recorded my acoustic duo partner Francis Moore Colyer playing the violin and put a lot of time-stretching effects on it which formed a spacious and organic pad sound. There is also some finger clicks, djembe, handclaps and whale song in there too. My process with electronic music is to effect the organic sounds to make them sound electronic and give the electronic parts enough modulation and subtle variations as an instrumentalist would so they sound organic in origin. The result is a bio-mechanical, mesh of organic and electronic sounds.

Roger has worked extensively in theatre, film and dance in particular with the music-theatre company Operating Theatre which he co-founded with actress Olwen Fouere. Operating Theatre released singles with CBS and Mother Records in the 80s - the latter produced by Bono of U2 - and also mounted several theatre productions integrating music as an equal partner. In his 30s he worked in many styles, allowing the influences of pop music to filter through. He was one of the first people in Ireland to work on a Fairlight Computer Music Instrument.&#13;
In 1989, at the age of 40 he began his life's work BABEL which would occupy him for 10 years. In 1999 he set up the Silverdoor label and released BABEL as a 5-CD set, where each track corresponds to a room or place within a giant tower city. It contained 103 pieces of music and he worked with 48 collaborators on it.&#13;
In 2000 the CD UNDER THE GREEN TIME was released, a collaboration with the Netherlands Wind Ensemble; as was a CD of the piano music which Doyle composed for the Steven Berkoff production of SALOME, which played in Dublin's Gate Theatre, in London's West End and on three world tours.&#13;
From 2002-07 he worked on a large-scale electronic work PASSADES, constructed in 9 'sets', and released on 3 CDs.&#13;
From 2007-2010 he completed 2 'cinema for the ear' projects - live soundtracks for imaginary films: ADOLF GÉBLER, CLARINETTIST and THE ROOM IN THE TOWER (performed by the National Symphony Orchestra and The Crash Ensemble respectively - both released on CD), and in 2012  CHALANT-MEMENTO MORI - music composed around intimate verbal time capsules (telephone answering machine messages from the 1980s), together with  THE THOUSAND YEAR OLD BOY - software instruments compositions which are 'explorations in imagined world musics, past, present and future'. (2013).&#13;
He has just completed his first opera 'The Death By Fire Of Giordano Bruno' (2014).
In 1997 he won the Programme Music Prize (with Spirit Levels I-IV from Babel) and in 2007 the Magisterium Award (with The Ninth Set from Passades) at the Bourges International Electro-acoustic Music Competition, in France.&#13;
Roger Doyle is a member of Aosdana, Ireland's state-sponsored academy of creative artists and is constantly amazed that he is a composer.
