“In times of widespread chaos and confusion, it has been the duty of more advanced human beings--artists, scientists, clowns and philosophers--to create order. In times such as ours, however, when there is too much order, too much management, too much programming and control, it becomes the duty of superior men and women to fling their favorite monkey wrenches into the machinery. To relive the repression of the human spirit, they must sow doubt and disruption.”   ― Tom Robbins

It's a very sad day.  We lost our dog. She had a brain tumor and is finally in peace.

For Ginger

Immersive collaborative album of Atmøsphäre and Dionisaf, steeped in cold textures, shadowy resonance, and layers of abrasive noise, conjures a bleak sonic tundra — where icy drones, distorted textures, and shadowy pulses stretch across vast, unforgiving landscapes.

Produced, mixed and mastered by Tom Lievens (Atmøsphäre) and Dionis Afonichev (Dionisaf)

The First Gate

A.I. could never have fell off it’s bike 20 years ago and hit it’s head directly on a concrete outdoor basement.

A.I. could never have had their behaviour change to the point of not recognizing itself and adopting the belief it was never the same since the cerebral commotion.

A.I. could never have consequently imagined an Aaliyah type ad-libs x Tibetan Bowl x William Basinski - dlp 1.1.1 x Beyonce Me Myself & I mashup as an alleged result of abnormal brain activity.

I still remember the day this song was born. on a Sunday morning in August in 2015.
recently awake and with strange feelings, difficult to define ...
so I went to the piano and found this music.
I tried it again for the whole morning and most of the song was already defined at the end of the day. it was one of the few times in my life that a musical idea took shape and substance so quickly, without too many second thoughts. I have only revised a few details over time, like some notes or rests, but otherwise it is perfect in my opinion. there is no need for anything else. I received appreciation from several friends or people I know when I proposed listening to it .. and so I decided to make it known to a wider audience. I think it is one of the songs that has given me greater awareness as an artist. a kind of beginning ... for a road that I am still walking.

Version update on 25/01/2023.

After so many years and after so many daily rehearsals I managed to reinterpret this piece again in an attempt to add some small details that enrich the atmosphere. No effect or compression etc.  added, only a very light editing to correct the dynamics and attack of some chords or notes.

After silence, that which comes nearest to expressing the inexpressible is music. ~ Aldous Huxley

All good music resembles something. Good music stirs by its mysterious resemblance to the objects and feelings which motivated it. ~ Jean Cocteau

All music is beautiful. ~ Billy Strayhorn
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I've become addicted to drone. Again. I was the kid with his head on the piano, listening to the overtones die away, or pressing his ear to the steel hull of the ferry, enthralled by the sounds it created. I was the kid who formed wordless songs to accompany the sound of train wheels on a long journey, or hummed along with the fan on a hot day.

In the 60s I used to play my 45s on 16, or backwards, or by hand using razor blades as stylii.

I made cut-up tapes on a cheap cassette recorder in the 70s and experimented with reel-to-reel in the 80s. 

Thank you Subotnick, Lygeti, Coltrane, Jimi, Mimaroglu, Eno, Cluster, Tangerine Dream, Klaus Schulze, Frank Zappa, Pink Floyd, Kraftwerk, Throbbing Gristle...

I am not a musician. I am a scavenger of sounds. I use the most basic software to process those sounds, stretching and filtering until something emerges that makes a joyful noise. Or not...
