about

Most of the albums on this site are so-called DAILY STUDIES, real-time improvisations mostly using iOS (iPad) apps — synths, effects, audio processors, and especially generative sequencers to create polyphonic compositions on a regular (mostly daily) basis. The practicality/mobility of iOS devices and the wide spectrum of available software has made this combination of compositional and improvisational techniques my preferred mode of expression during the past few years, especially suited to making music on a daily basis, no matter where I might be in terms of location and situation.

Many of these digital albums are very process-oriented and may not make much sense to a listener as a “finished product” since they present a sort of array of ideas that could be experienced like ambient music, perhaps in shuffle mode for long durations. Today (30 August 23) I am releasing two albums that are of contrasting nature: SILLENBUCH PIANI and SYMPHONIC IMPROVISATIONS. The first is focused entirely on piano sounds, to make the various generative processes as clear as possible and the second seeks to present a larger palette of orchestral colors using only the possibilities of four instances of a single synthesizer (Fabfilter’s marvelous Twin3) to create several “movements” which all use recurring and developing thematic material to create a morphing unified field. Moreso than many of the albums, I have made an effort to make them satisfying as organic albums, which may or may not work for individual listeners.

These pieces were improvised in the early morning, 12-13 August 2023, in Stuttgart-Sillenbuch.
