Electronic piece for stereo audio file

Year — 2024
Duration — 10'38''
Première — 02 Juni 2024 | Herz Jesu - Frankfurt (DE)
Informations — Based on chaotic models, ꋪꍟꉣꍟ꒒꒒ꀤꈤꁅ ꍏ꓄꓄ꋪꍏꉓ꓄ꂦꋪꌗ oscillates between states of equilibrium and non-periodic phases, repetitions and sudden bifurcations. The result is a very organic, fluid and abstract composition — a dystopian soundscape with maximalist textures fighting against each other, staggering from explosive bursts of percussive impacts to static but recurrent drones. The whole system - shaped by the composer's hand on his modular synthesizer - generated continuously new and unexpected gestures like a non-linear, yet adaptive and self-sustaining ecosystem.

Ambroos De Schepper and Pepijn Gyssels became roommates when PiP first moved to Brussels in 2021. Both paid close attention to each other’s musical approach and interests. One year later, Ambroos moved out. When he swung by to pick up some boxes, they decided to record something for the fun of it. Between May '23 and November '24 they continued experimenting with textures and improvisations. This collaboration has become the deepening of a friendship and a way to maintain it at the same time.

PiP: “We would have coffee or the occasional beer and everything we recorded came very organically. Ambroos would just bring his saxophone, a clarinet, some FX pedals or a weird flute. Whatever he felt like on that particular day. A few hours later he would usually be on his way again, leaving me with the recordings. I could treat them as I pleased.”

Ambroos: “I liked the idea of working with someone focussing on the physical side of music. Not so much on chords and tonality, but on texture and atmosphere. This gave me a framework with less concrete references, using words like “dark” or “busy”. I could improvise freely and we would try and catch a particular moment."
