Aftermath by subtractiveLAD
These tracks are all produced with a heavy emphasis on saturation / distortion and analogue modular noisescapes. Piano features prominently on all tracks but one.
Though noise is a primary thread that ties these tracks together, these pieces explore the more meditative side of noise timbres while avoiding the more abrasive and extreme textures often associated with noise music. The performed piano parts also provide an emotional counterpoint to the modular explorations.
This music is great for listening to when waiting for things that never come, beginning great quests seeking meaning in tiny things, hiding from the world in a blanket fort and / or remaining hopeful in the face of disaster.
Recorded, mixed and mastered at 24 bit / 96 kHz for your high resolution pleasure.

Music has always been a central part of my life. Over the years, as I have developed as an artist, my music has become the primary filter through which I process my experiences and emotions. My creative approach is to use the recording studio as an instrument of expression - to use technology as an extension of physical performance. Improvisation is always a core part of my creative process.
