My latest sound work “Strömung” features both some of the most delicate ambient textures I’ve ever recorded and some of the more deliberately basic noise I could manage to assemble. As a listener, I’ve always been a fan of abrupt endings and sudden changes, so it was part of the fun to keep the individual sections rather short.

Produced in May 2010.
