On Bandcamp now!

Hey, I’m on Bandcamp now! The first album available there is called “Chronostasis Revised” and is based on a composition from 2009 for Studio Akustische Kunst of German broadcaster WDR. All is entirely made from clock sounds. There are two “Songs” for free download that were taken from the two longer pieces “Chronostasis Revised Part One and Two”. I have chosen the symbolic price of 1 € for the album. All revenues from these sales will go straight into my next recording with the London Symphony Orchestra – I hope you don’t let me wait too long for that…

The entire piece will be played on Monday next week, 1st of April, in Mannheim at the Jetztmusik-Festival. The location is quite special: it is the entrance hall of the Mannheim airport, from where you can look over the runway. Heidelberg’s visual artist Pong aka Dominik Rinnhofer is providing live visuals handtailored for the location and event. Come if you can! For all being at the show I’ll have download codes to get the tracks from my new bandcamp page for free.

New Composition “chronostasis” on its Way…

My new piece “chronostasis”, that I finished after some intensive work last December, will be broadcasted on 13th March on German radio WDR3. It’s a piece made exclusively from clocks ticking and ringing and some clock mechanics, nothing else. On the last day of work on this piece the former radio editor and director Götz Naleppa celebrated his retirement from his job at Deutschlandradio Kultur. Many artists who used to collaborate to his programme were asked to produce a little sound art snippet of exactly 54 sec., which is the actual lenght of his slot in minutes. It was a nice moment on that evening to hear all those different sound whishes and Götz was obviously pretty much moved by the variety of acoustic regards. Here is my contribution, which is in fact a little remix of an excerpt of chronostasis…
