My Funny Valentine

A soft and melodic short frippertronic session with my beloved MIJ Fender Telecaster directly in to the tape looper. The melody slowly dissolves into each other with nice tape saturation. One take no overdub. interaction with feedback level and reverb during recording.

an experiment using frippertronics type tape delay in an ensemble setting

nothing lasts forever

Improv on top of layer and layers of guitars found lying dormant. 

An alley leading off of a main road to a restaurant (or other business) is what I found a striking urban feature as I wandered around Kyoto.

Multiple, mostly inaudible, enhancements implemented.

Enjoy!

Just a nice synth pad, with some guitar loops and a solo.

Jake Lake & Jonas Rae - Deep Harvest

Creating music from a place of authenticity.  I do not make music to impress anyone or to show off my musicianship, but only to share what I am feeling.  I love to hear the authentic, independent works of others.  I live in a world of sound and vibration, and welcome the presence of friends.

Here on Soundcloud is a large archive of my works. It's a bit difficult to organize, as there is everything: solo works, film soundtracks, licensing music, live recordings and various demos. Please check the playlists or solo albums if you want to discover a particular direction.

I am always interested in new creative collaborations (films, games, commercials, remixing...) and I do a lot of freelance work (piano and strings production, songs arrangements, voice cleanup and video sound mixing, music for media...) - you are welcome to contact me!

I am a classically trained pianist, media composer and electroacoustic music artist. Originally from Riga, Latvia, I currently live in Trieste, Italy.

Composer, photographer, solo bassist, and cat lover. 

Please check my Bandcamp page for a more extensive selection of my work.

Praxed (b. 1979) is a French musician and visual artist based in Paris, blending classical guitar with modular synthesis to create unique soundscapes since 1993.
Rooted in experimental music, Praxed's work resonates with ambient and free jazz influences. His compositions interweave spacious guitar melodies, noise washes, metallic glitches, and infinite echoes with tape loops and transformative vocal notes, often inspired by Philip K. Dick's philosophical explorations.
Praxed's approach centers on live performance and improvisation, infusing his music with deep emotional content. Each performance is an immersive journey into his perception of reality, inviting listeners to explore intricate layers of sound and emotion.
His latest project, "The Classical Guitar and the Modular Synth Diary," features daily improvised recordings of experimental electroacoustic pieces, showcasing the fusion of traditional classical guitar melodies with avant-garde modular synthesis.
A standout in Paris's experimental music scene, Praxed is known not just for technical prowess, but for evoking profound emotional responses, pushing the boundaries of musical expression with each creation.
"Here, emotions are chords or discord. Intimacy, the soul of your spirit and your moods, the melody of this classical guitar as the only familiar landmark... the rest is nothing but silk, tumult, silence, and the noises of the world in which we find ourselves..."

Abstract sample sculptures, minimal/maximal, weird beats, broken ambient.
