about

A collection of abstract sound and music experiments from 2007-2017. A bit of context for each track follows:

EDPD RMX
A remix based on the recordings of En Dag På Dyrehavsbakken, the breakthrough piece of Danish avantgarde electronic composer, Else Marie Pade. The remix was made as a live performance at a tribute show after her death in 2016.
Produced 2016

Spilledåse
Made purely from recordings of a DIY Music Box, experimenting with different microphones, setting the music box on a snare drum to get the rattle of the snare in the recording, digital manipulations of the audio, different starting points etc.
Produced 2011

Metro
An exercise in how much can be done with field recordings. All sounds stem from the cityscapes of Prague and Amsterdam, respectively.
Produced 2010

Wellcare
Samplings of a small device that has the name “Wellcare” printed on it. It is emitting sounds that supposedly will make you relax, with names such as "bird song", "waves", "heart beat" and "white noise". There's colored lights as well.
Produced 2011

Klokkespil
A recording of a short melody from the DIY music box, with some extra sounds derived from that same recording.
Produced 2007

Metro gnom
A remix of Ligeti's Poeme Symphonique for 100 metronomes. In the piece, the metronomes are set off randomly, but are gradually falling into sync, and then ending as their clockworks run out of energy. The other starting component for this piece is the very definitive and well-designed sound of my laptop ejecting a CD, which comes in to stop the chaos when the sounds have built up too much.
Produced 2008

Top A
A series of improvised piano cords, cut up and digitally twisted. They all have the tone "A" as the top note.
Produced 2007
