Dossier and Project Outline
Dossier of Recordings
Please find a few recorded works here.
My previous production practice was mostly informed by certain conceptual contraints. In the uploaded files, I generally wanted to use as much sound material from an existing source.
I have been producing music since around 2012, where I started as a teenager with Cubase. I have moved across DAWs, from Sampling and producing hip hop, to more experimental electronic music, modular synthesizers, live-coding and live performances. Of later works I have very few recordings, so the works in the link above are mostly archival.
The super cut review.wav
and the departure.wav
files consist entirely of samples of documentary films; I created a short EP where the super cut contains snippets of all tracks therein.
Then, the mountains_septims_b.wav
track is composed of samples of a high security door rattling and it’s buzzer blaring, as well as a video game soundtrack.
Finally, untitled_bottle_b.wav
is composed of two tracks, an intricate Diva patch and a midi score of a recording of a friend of mine blowing into a bottle.
My previous minor at ZHdK was Storytelling with Sound Design, where I was able to again brush up on recording techniques when working with artists in a more professional context.
Project Outline
Lately, I have been very inspired by artists such as Toxe and Fever Ray. I have also started DJing, and not just producing music, which has opened me up to a large array of new influences and new directions.
Whilst I can’t really situate my previous production into Pop (or Jazz) as a genre, my newfound influences definitely point me in that direction and I would love to explore this further.
I am familiar with the technical side of audio production, and would love the possiblity to collaborate with musicians who are also looking into more experimental electronic pop.
I don’t have a concrete project idea, but would love to spend more time to focus on bringing in my different musical interests and produce a sketch for an album or collection of tracks that ties in my previous forays in sampling and my passion for synthesizers and electronic, in a collaborative frame. A possible outcome could also be a sketch for a score for a short film, already existing, or simply trying to capture a range of emotions and paces.
Thank you for your consideration.
