Recorded 3/7/19.

Winter Woods (modular synth patch)

When I recorded the first piece of my "Whatever" series (the songs have no name, so you can call them whatever you like), I had just moved into my new Berlin apartment with my beloved Yamaha Piano. I had been traveling for a long time and after listening to a lot of modern classical music on the road, I felt the desire to make music myself.

Inspired by Artists like Greg Haines, I tried to combine my acoustic instrument with electronic elements. So I set up a USB microphone, recorded a few notes into my iPad, added some effects, and then started to play the Piano on top of it.

I was very exhausted from all the touring and I guess that is what this piece kind of reflects. The result is a fully improvised take, only the fade-in and out werde edited afterwards. And if you listen closely, you can even hear a car slowly driving by my open balcony windows. :)
