This is just a work in progress:
Mashup of 2 tracks from my upcoming album "CHESS"

The Queen - The Knights

Preview to my latest slick, elegant, sexy track based on beats recorded with a chess piece on a chess board and also a grand piano...
Inspired by this text by Steve Dept:
"The praying mantis is as devious as she is influential, slender but powerful, both gracious and lethal. The vengeful Queen ate God at dawn and chants and charms and at dusk will spite us all."

... For Maman ...

Mae is the thai word for mother
Nam is the word for water
Mae Nam means river
Can you feel it flow?
The rhythm of eternity

THE PiANOLOGIST

Mae Nam

For Susan

Murmurs and muted strains conceal, reveal and then conceal again the figments of a narrative thread: echoes of frenetic rituals from a forgotten empire; clusters of stars — light years away.

Once in Ubud

Once In Ubud

... For Freddy ... (D'après de vieux cahiers...)

I composed the original piano fragment at 9 years old, when my grandfather was found dead in mysterious circumstances.

Rising from the abyss,  the creatures of the never-ending nights converge in a mysterious rendez-vous, embark in an elliptic Danse Macabre. A pair of loose wings loom up from the horde in a gyrating whiff; spins turn into twirls, then shift into electrifying pirouettes. They clear off in a last breath and dissolve into perpetual doom...

This modern updated, extended, re-written, spiked-up version encapsulates The PiANOLOGIST's four-dimensionial elements:

Initial Sound Impulse - Time Warp - Sound Panning in Space - Subconscious Trace Resonance

Shadow Mirrors

... For Eva, who shares my passion for Exile ...

Freshly landed in an unknown country, sitting on a train among the mountains of Northern Thailand, the first fragments of this piece started forming in my head. Thailand would become a second home and this piece would be the spark to ignite this entire album a decade later.

A Train Named Exile

Because one card can change your life...

The Magician - first card of the tarot deck - standing with one arm stretched up towards the Universe and the other pointing down to the Earth represents the connection between the spiritual and material realms, the conduit that converts energy into matter.

Alea jacta est !

The Magician

... For Oat ...

"Your swift whim
In the morn
Lick lush limbs
By the gaze of dawn

Brisk is the span
Of glistening fountain dew
Soon wiped by the sun,
Ever brisk are you

Its sweet tears will grow
If you rain me a willow"

Rain Me A Willow

I believe in Music as a Fourth Dimension...
Music and its ability to warp, bend or suspend Time and Space.
Music as traces of ancestral rituals.
Music as a reflection of natural wonders...
