About my music...

(“Destroyed Notations” Milan Knížák - 1963-1977)

I have always considered my musical activity to be an existential quest, an experience beyond limits, and a sensory and intellectual adventure.

Sounds, sound textures, acoustic spaces, instrumental colors, including those of virtual instruments, open up a field of expression and exploration that goes far beyond the boundaries of language, the languages we speak, the texts we write...

This boundless, open, adventurous dimension is an integral part of the music I create and the music I love to listen to.

Maximum openness, audiophile curiosity spanning ancient and contemporary music, jazz, rock, ambient, world music...

Every record I listen to, every new artist I discover enriches and transforms me, broadens my horizons, makes me see the world in a different way, like a prism or a plugin enriching my sensitivity, my intelligence, my relationship to the world...

I am an adventurous listener who loves to take the road less traveled, toward non-commercial, demanding, provocative music that makes you think and dream...

I think that the music I make, the music I made with Christoph Harbonnier in Lightwave, the music I make as a solo artist, and the music I am currently creating in my collaboration with Paul Haslinger, follows the same logic...

For me, musical creation is a space of freedom, without borders, without commercial constraints, without marketing niches.

It is a space where boundaries blur and dissolve, where the words and categories of record marketing no longer make sense... All that matters is the deep logic that organizes sounds and silence according to the inspiration of the moment...

The music I am listening to right now, the music I am creating right now, undoubtedly reflects a moment in my life, in my evolution.

I am aware that my current music probably defies the usual categories... Too abstract to be popular, too experimental to be ambient, without sequences to be Berlin School, too intuitive and exploratory to be true contemporary classical music...

It doesn't matter... It's my music...

I don't know how to define it... Deep down, words and categories don't matter...

It's my music, which carves out its own discreet path away from the cacophony of algorithmic playlists...

Musical freedom belongs to musicians, but also to listeners who choose to stray from (overly) well-tempered ambient music...
