Episode Synopsis

Over the past year, a substantial body of work emerged—nearly one hundred tracks—largely rooted in modular synthesis and occasionally blended with software-based processes. Rather than forcing these pieces into traditional release cycles, the artist revisited the material and approached it as part of an ongoing practice rather than a final statement.

The tracks were distilled into three categories: works left behind, works that stand confidently on their own, and works that function as raw material—sketches with potential to evolve further. This perspective reflects a long-held belief that creative output does not need to be immediately judged or finalized to hold value.

In a landscape where traditional label communication has become increasingly opaque, this release opts for a direct and transparent approach. A curated selection of tracks is now being released independently on Bandcamp for a symbolic price and is also included for subscribers who continue to support the work without expectation.

This release is less about closure and more about sharing a moment in an ongoing process—inviting listeners into the studio, the practice, and the trust that underpins it.
