about

LINE_109

my compositional process doesn’t begin with metaphors or concepts but rather by thinking about working methods and sound sources and then interacting with sounds, collecting them, analyzing and combining them, and then reacting.

when listening to these pieces and attempting to make some sense of what was accomplished and what it suggests, my thoughts continuously returned to an idea of emanations reaching out, exciting and filling space.. causing it to ring and vibrate and chatter in all directions, but not equally—in differentiated states.

this series of compositions explores some of the extensities afforded by simple perturbations of initial conditions. reaching out to fill niches, recombining in novel ways and returning to familiar areas only to find them changed by the experience of repetition, the tonalities and the events which seem to induce them are continuously in dialogue.

-

when the sun shines or sets and we are in darkness or full illumination there is a sense of setting in and repose; however during those transitions from light to dark or dark to light again or after a storm when the interrupted light returns and dapples the landscape, the hightened contrast and intensities reflect an innateness of chaos and form.

-

'extensities' is the result of my continuing investigations of the uses of certain sine like tones which are produced by passing radio broadcast sounds through a resonant filter and generating feedback.

Nachtstücke
by Stephan Mathieu

supported by 32 fans who also own “extensities”

Who would have imagined Federico Durand as an appearance here (Third Dream)? The collaboration is enchanting. Federico has a way with abstract but deceptively simple, nearly melodic single note patterns. That combined with Stephan’s multilayered drones…it just works at every level. Richard Erickson

Radioland
by Stephan Mathieu

supported by 31 fans who also own “extensities”

Great drone-work by a master of the form. Snippets of mysterious short wave radio broadcasts evolves into huge, otherworldly symphonies related to Ligetis Lux Aeterna, but warmer and more humane. Absolutely absorbing! polinos
