Ana’S Valse is a mixed piano/Buchla composition, inspired by the richness and contrasts of the multiple facets of the personality of my youngest daughter Ana. Darkness, Wilderness, Smoothness, Gentleness, a whole range of contradictory emotions…

The piece is a snapshot of a moment during a very early summer morning when the night caves in and gives way to dawn.

In the composition of this song for piano and Buchla synthesizer, the search is aimed at fusion. The fusion of timbres of two instruments that a priori may be antagonistic. Musically, I seek to convey the same thing: a dialogue that seems to be in a different language, but that achieves an understanding between the two parties.

"I commute daily by a train and I mostly intentionally - but sometimes unintentionally - reflected and interpreted the sounds I hear while being on the train, waiting on the railway stations, listening to the conversations of other passengers and machines, vehicles, tools of workers. I find it quite meditative.
The track is an audio picture of all of that static movement."

“The Thing” was born out of the 2022 summer sessions when I was obsessed with cosmic horror sci-fi movies like The Thing, Color Out of Space, Annihilation, and Invasion of the Body Snatchers. I used them as inspiration to capture the complex emotions of what it might feel like to witness a more evolved alien species envelope all life on earth. The Buchla is great at evoking a kind of beautiful terror, as the sound of the 200e can be cold, aggressive, and distant. To me, the West Coast cross modulation and the natural aliasing from the digital oscillators overdriving the input and output circuits create a sense of DNA being ripped apart and reformed into something completely different. All thoughts, memory, and trace of our existence on this planet absorbed into a new life form.
For this session, I came up with a patch using a modified Buchla Skylab. It’s pretty stock except for a 250e in place of the 251e and iconic 223e. I also allowed three extra cables to create spontaneous additional patching and used a Strymon Nightsky for reverb effects. The patch stayed the same all summer as I recorded different sessions. I was intrigued with how much variation could be achieved within one patch.

Petit's output and energy are off the charts. He is into so many musical lines of thought and reasoning on this album that I am simply blown away by what he does here. Highly recommend.

Each of these tracks are skeleton keys that open a portal into another dimension. As such, they are all wonderful in their own right. This release reaches back in time to an age of analog semi-generative ambient exploration. Very much worth a listen.

If I wanted to point someone to Steve Roach's music, I'd start them here. This record spans some of Roach's signature styles, like the percolating synths in "Currents of Compassion", the dreamy abstraction of "Prometheus Passage", the tribal rhythms of "The Gone Place", and the elegiac majesty of "What Remains". It's stunning all around and guaranteed to make any day better.
