Absence

Absence in everyway we turn.

Everywhere is absence

Desert or city, two sides of the same coin. We march head-down in isolation, in a virtualization run by the Machine.

A sonic duality, blending desert-inspired landscape soundtrack and neon city-inspired industrial synth beats.

The constraints at a breaking point

Another work limited to 8 instruments by 8 ‘scenes’, or phases the music goes through. This time it was a tight straightjacket, and instead of a productivity catalyst, the constraints became a burden that consumed time trying to find ways to accommodate the music sections in such a narrow space. Nevertheless, it was still a fast semi-improvised process as intended; Music and video were completed in less than a week’s part time effort.
