about

Composing is only a matter of choices. In electroacoustic music, choices are almost all the time about how to generate a sound and how to combine to one another.
These sounds here have been waiting for several long years, available as material for new compositions. But each time I tried to mix them with others sounds I lost them. Their own music disappeared. The hardest choice to make was to decide that these sounds were already music and that no further move was possible or necessary.
That was it.
This "Fragments" series focuses on repetitive and obsessive forms that tend to expose musicality through micro-variations.

Who would have imagined Federico Durand as an appearance here (Third Dream)? The collaboration is enchanting. Federico has a way with abstract but deceptively simple, nearly melodic single note patterns. That combined with Stephan’s multilayered drones…it just works at every level. Richard Erickson
