about

This album is an exploration of the usually unwanted noise found inside analogue electric circuits and was made using the mysterious and endlessly inspiring Ciat-Lonbarde Cocoquantus electronic music instrument. Its chaotic nature invites playful experimentation and its unlimited depth as a performance instrument is unmatched. All tracks were recorded live after intensive practising with each patch. Some rhythmic accompaniment on the first Etude was made using the xRollz instrument.

The Noise Etudes are dedicated to a fearless spirit who after an almost deadly incident during the Greek Civil War, that the British initiated, he decided to change music history forever with his uncompromising life force and music compositions.
Iannis Xenakis, your life and works are a constant inspiration.

Nice thought-provoking music. It seems to fit any kind of feeling and it's really cool to read about the process in which the music and sounds were created! I'm glad to not only own a physical copy but the book as well. Fantastic work! a_lnecks
