The afterbirth of apollo

Description: Recording of Eric Lyon's The afterbirth of appollo. This work is for electronics and has a lot of noise elements. The synthetic sounds are harsh and posses an analog sound. This sound feels continuous and even though there is movement in the sound, the construction continues to stay the same. There is a true representation of electronic sound in this work, instead of shying away from the noise, this work embraces it and explores the importance of balance and musical transitions.

Songes drôlatiques

Description: Recording of Michel Redolfi's Songes drôlatiques. Audio and visual suite inspired by the "Drolatic Dreams" of Rabelais' Pantagruel. The sound production calls for two elements: the voice of Michael Lonsdale performing in unprecedented registers and bodily sounds produced by the dancers. Added to this are throbbing metal, creaking wood, gurgling liquids and any substance relating to Rabelais' sound environment. Thus, virtual flesh, mysterious pharynx and imaginary mechanics compose for the ear a… more

Limite inferiore sinistro

Description: Recording of Elio Martusciello's Limite inferiore sinistro. The matter of elimination, that is to say the sound of the rustle of a magnetic tape, constitutes the acoustic nature of this composition. The sole use of a tape recorder-mixer as a sound generator, gives a sufficient result for the creative operation, and ultimately to the gesture of the component. In all this hides a subtle complacency, a game of perspectives where this plan relegated to the bottom at the musical level and pushed fur… more

These vectors represent states in the space of sequences formed by counting integer values in cycles. Various midi events are generated to control the sound modules. The piece was concerned for dan… more

Hit me!

Description: Recording of Simon Hall's Hit me! The main body of the piece is in two sections. The first is based on stretched and transpositions of the number of vocal and instrumental gestures, and the second is intentionally more abstract and less obviously derived from the source material.
