About me

I am an ambitious musical hobbyist living in Stuttgart. Not the one in Kansas nor the one in Arkansas, but the much bigger one in Germany. While I mainly compose in 12edo (or, let's say, my music is mostly interpretable and understandable in 12edo), some of it is microtonal. Like most of us, I am grown up in a 12edo context culture, and most instruments I deal with strengthen a 12edo position, but in electronic music I like to use a bunch of possibilities, of which 12edo is but one.

Jolly Ride is a piece written in the equal-tempered Bohlen-Piercescale (13ed3). Using an eclectic musical language from baroque, jazz/ragtime, and impressionism, I tried to shed light on the possibilities of BP. Using mostly the lambda scale as a base, modulating between different tonalities, I also use False Father with its pseudo-octave at one point. BP is mostly known as a scale with low tension, I found that there is more in it. Enjoy a jolly ride on an exoplanetary camel!
