Lovely to Listen 01

A collaboration with Rafael Anton Irisarri from his album 'Reverie' (http://www.discogs.com/Rafael-Anton-Irisarri-Reverie/release/2218962)
An Arvo Pärt piano piece with added electronics and ambient texture.

Arvo Pärt's 'Für Alina' (with Rafael Anton Irisarri)

"There can be no true beauty without decay."

I haven't posted new music since a while now, although I never stopped composing. I guess this track is the most personal thing I could share with you.
It's about a woman who means a lot to me. She always encouraged me in my darkest hours. Even if I was close to deleting all of my recordings and burning all of the albums I made. She took me to Bonn to study filmmusic-composition this year and was proud of me doing what I do. She plays the violin in this song and was sitting next to me most of the time I was composing it for her and with her.

On December the 8th 2014 she passed away. I am trying to accept it and that's why I am sharing her beauty with you. May her playing move you the way it moves me and may she never be forgotten.

I love you.
I miss you.
And I will never forget what you have done for me.
Thank you for everything.

Spirit

Patience (feat. Ólafur Arnalds)

Best with headphones!

Close your eyes, open your ears and take a journey from the frozen middle of winter, through the warming of spring and into the bright sunlight of summer in this relaxing, ambient piece.

I was trying to convey the sense of time moving slowly but also rapidly, like how it feels living the same week on repeat while in lockdown for 112 days.

Featuring ambient recordings sourced from many providers including foley captured many years ago by me and my trusty MiniDisc recorder. This is likely the only track I've produced with me whistling.

An interesting, but totally unrelated note, this track goes for 420 seconds.

I made this track using mostly my 'Tatak - Tape Harmonium' instrument which is available for free over at 
https://www.pianobook.co.uk/library/tatak-tape-harmonium/

You can watch a short video that shows how I made the glitchy drums here:

The drums are chopped up and beaten Spitfire LABS Drums.
My daughter Mia was hanging over my shoulder as I recorded the muted acoustic guitar part and I'm not sure why she wanted to say 'ow' so many times but it stayed there.

Hallo

In this piece, I portrait what would be for me the sound of a frightening and strange new world, the path arriving in a new world, the mystery around it, and then going deeper and deeper into this new place and discovering more about it. 

I hope you enjoy it.
