Neglect

let's keep it superficial

About Me

i stay up late with the machines. i give them information, they give me back their interpretation. we get along this way. i don't use computers to compose music. individual machines/instruments/objects have a character of their own and i respect that. yet some of the best sounds are the free sounds. the ones that occur every second and are waiting for you to grab and engrave in memory. i capture these transient sounds, investigate, rework + reprocess and the result is what you hear above. for me this is therapy, this is what keeps me sane.
