Second section (2025, self-released)
sound collage, algorithmic composition, prepared guitar, musique concrète
The fourth DFAP release combines the methods of the first three: electroacoustic compositions a la musique concrète and field recordings, prepared guitar with a recorder as a guitar pick (sic!) and algorithmic and generative compositional methods.
Besides the acoustic guitar, recorder and contact microphones (recordings made 6 years ago), there was used a self-made software called Binary synth, which generates sequences of MIDI messages from the binary code of different files on the computer. In most of the pieces, these MIDI messages controlled the playback of segments of recordings from the recorder and contact microphones.
The title of each track, of course, does not designate the genre, but rather remotely hints at it, asking you to keep it in mind when listening.
In memory of Arseny Avraamov, a pioneer of noise music.
