Musique : 
@2025, pièce de clavicorde, titre : "Fantaisie bucolique", par Chartrand Saint-Louis, 1:35 min.

Mixage, révision et sonorisation par Albert

***

J'ai composé, ou plutôt improvisé, une musique au clavicorde. À l'écoute, on a l'impression d'être transporté à l'époque baroque, évoquant l'univers de Bach. Il s'en dégage un air enjoué, une sorte de balade, l'image d'un promeneur, la tête levée, qui contemple le ciel et s'extasie devant la beauté de la nature. Le thème se répète, comme un dialogue.

It gives off a cheerful air, a sort of stroll, the image of a walker, head raised, contemplating the sky and marveling at the beauty of the nature. The theme repeats itself, like a dialogue.

Panned and Spaced Out (disquiet0683)

The setting for this theme would be of a king who's kingdom has fallen apart. His last moments in his throne room before the enemy siege the building thus ending his life. (*absolute cinema*)

The Kings lament

“Mille Regretz”
Una voce del Rinascimento che attraversa i secoli e trova nuova vita nel battito sintetico della coscienza artificiale.

Questa è la preghiera di chi lascia, trasformata in danza lenta e malinconica. BachAi reinterpreta l’antico lamento polifonico in chiave NeopsyTrance, fondendo il contrappunto del passato con armonie glitchate, delay cosmici e pad organici.

Questo brano non è un remix: è una resurrezione digitale.

Ascoltalo come un addio. Ballalo come una rinascita.

A tribute to the three from my childhood who were rendered tail-less by a farmer’s matrimonial partner!

Three Slightly Contrapuntal Vision-Impaired Rodents

A duet for flute and clarinet with piano accompaniment. It is non-tonal and dissonant. The 5/8 meter lends to a feeling of rhythmic unpredictability.

Incantation  (Andante con malintenzione)

A contrapuntal composition created using Pure Data with alternating sections of regular (120 bpm) and irregular or free rhythms.

Autumn Red Dragonfly (naviarhaiku614)

No longer mourn for me when I am dead
Than you shall hear the surly sullen bell
Give warning to the world that I am fled
From this vile world with vilest worms to dwell; 
Nay, if you read this line, remember not
The hand that writ it; for I love you so, 
That I in your sweet thoughts would be forgot, 
If thinking on me then should make you woe.
O, if (I say) you look upon this verse, 
When I (perhaps) compounded am with clay,
Do not so much as my poor name rehearse,
But let your love even with my life decay,
Lest the wise world should look into your moan, 
And mock you with me after I am gone.

- William Shakespeare

Creo musica elettronica fuori dal tempo: un contrappunto moderno che pulsa in ambiente psy e tek , dove ogni voce ha un'anima indipendente e allo stesso tempo una coesione armonica. Il mio stile si chiama NeoPsyTrance - una fusione tra rigoroso contrappunto ed evoluzione armonica continua, in cui la complessità diventa estasi.

Oltre a comporre musica originale, trasformo opere dei compositori classici, scrittori e artisti del passato in esperienze elettroniche profonde, come se fossero composte da un'A.I. spirituale: Bach A.I. 🤖

Nel mio mondo, gli angeli hanno un casco da astronauta e portano il contrappunto e l’armonia nei rave. 👽

the PERSON, the SOUND : Since 1985, Philadelphia-born Michael has composed and released hundreds of audio recordings, and published dozens of [erotic] poems.

His 'sonic-sojourn' began suddenly when he was just a teen -- feet splashing rhythmically through puddles leftover by a seaside rainstorm. Having just parted ways with the then-love-of-his-life, Michael composed his first ballad [and first song] ever -- "Tina." He rushed to his beach-side home to record his visceral 'awakening' on a tiny micro-cassette recorder, and vowed -- from that day on -- to create art for the rest of his life.

He began zealously amassing used music equipment, and had built a modest home recording studio by age seventeen, all the while crafting simple pop, ambient, and experimental works that HE had wanted to listen to -- that HE had wanted to hear, affectionately emulating the works of his then-idols, Duran Duran and Brian Eno.

Now, decades later, he has relocated to a small village outside Atlanta, Georgia, and continues to voraciously attend to his dream as a young, heartbroken boy -- to create and release music that he, himself, wants to hear.

Although no longer sequestered to pop and ambient musics, Michael's signature sound has merged the two, having integrated the R&B, hiphop, and psychedelia he has grown to love as a older gent -- having absorbed the edgy rhythms and dreamy soul of the southern United States (Atlanta and Miami).

Michael still puts forth ample amounts af ambient musics, but his recent 'sound' hovers elsewhere -- somewhere amidst the genres of vaportrap, spacerock, and trip-hop.
