Episode Synopsis

16 in c minor
I never totally understood the attraction towards the c minor key in a lot of electronic music. But hey, I fall for that too sometimes.
Just a Mutable Instruments Rings setting the tone for a party in a distopian future. A happy ending?

about the album:

Denmark, like most european countries, is currently on lockdown because of the COVID-19 pandemic. All this time indoors brought me to check into some archive recordings. Mostly, live-recordings and improvisations from my home studio in Refshaleøen, Copenhagen. The recordings span from early 2018 until a few days ago and most of them were never meant to be "pieces" or "tracks". Yet there is something appealing about them, just because of that. Here, you will find some possible ideas for future tracks, "live-remixes" of previously released tracks, improvisations and some bleep bloop just-testing stuff. Listening back to all this music, I can't honestly remember how I did half of it. It almost feels like someone else's music. I like that.

I hope you like it too.
