Experimental minimal techno album by electroacoustic composer Rutger Muller and contemporary jazz bassist Bernhard Hollinger. Abstract melodic patterns based on samples of classical music.

Recursive Reflections (Rutger Muller & Bernhard Hollinger)

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)
