opus automatum (part 1) is based on a 16-track recording from the Serge modular system. The entire recording was edited with the focus on preserving the original analog timbre of this unique synthesizer

opus automatum (part 1) is the first piece in a five-part collection of generative compositions. 
I dedicate this recording to the passionate musician, composer and philosopher Klaus Weinhold.

Sven Lütgen is musician, audiodesigner, artist and lecturer for sound/intermedia at the Muthesius Academy of Art in Kiel, Germany.

He studied fine arts at the Düsseldorf Art Academy (diploma and master student of Alfonso Hüppi), postgraduate studies in media art at the Karlsruhe University of Arts and Design, doctoral studies in media sciences at the Muthesius University of Art in Kiel with a focus on sound/space/perception.

In addition to various music and sound projects he is part of the Electronica duo „munit” with Dietrich Foth (known from Kammerflimmer Kollektief) with numerous appearances and publications (e.g. Mute, Too Pure, shitkatapult).

We're up to our necks in avant-jazz, punk rock, and everything in between, Dogs h8 Rats are genre defying, and full of surprises. The music is born of improvisational performances so with a little luck you'll catch the "mistakes and imperfections" now and then, or as Miles Davis once said "Don't fear mistakes, there are none" and that ethos is in clear evidence within the music of Dh8R's. The core of Dh8R's is made up of Douglas Wilkerson and Michael Grimes who collaborate with friends old and new."

❤️ Thank you for buying music from independent artists! We need to pay our rent and electricity bills, feed our cats, buy food, car insurance, and all that other stuff too...You can buy our music on Bandcamp.

It's going to get real strange around here…

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...

In my spare time I have fun creating some electronic music …
