The electro-acoustic composition/improvisation Processive constantly attempts to balance meditative and uncanny elements. Over a span of roughly 30 minutes, it evokes an alien sound world that is desolate, yet comforting. The piece was developed by Rutger Muller, Josephine Bode (recorders, vocals) and Wen Chin Fu (cello) between 2014 and 2018...

Processive (excerpts preview)

I'm an electroacoustic composer interested in mystic, spiritual and ritual sound. I approach music through the intricacies of timbre, acoustics and spatiality, and I extract compositions or "soundspaces" from elements of ancient/classical music, (dark) ambient, (dub) techno, free improvisation and architectural ideas. By shaping a semi-abstract sound, I want to transcend the drama of emotion, reach beyond it, towards the patterns and noises of consciousness (the micro cosmos), outer space (the macro cosmos) and nature.

"...a fascinating contemporary classical-techno-ambient hybrid, miles away from even a lot of the post-classical music you hear these days. This is driving, jazz-inflected experimental electronic music deeply rooted in classical instrumentation and form." - Create Digital Music(2015)
