“Blue” is a delicate yet textured exploration of the relationship between acoustic music and digital production. With a tender foundation of piano and strings, the piece evolves into a fusion of classical timbres and experimental electronic techniques. This unique blend of musical styles creates an atmosphere that is both cinematic and dynamic.

Blue

This is my debut project titled "Blue." This work is meant to explore the relationship between acoustic instruments and digital production. As it progresses, experimental electronic techniques and the manipulation of analog sounds develop the texture throughout. Although the piece starts with a delicate piano and string ballad, it quickly becomes something more.
