lyrics

« I first became acquainted with the Serge modular system in the late 1990s when I managed to pick up a pair of very early ‘paper face’ sequencer modules which were being sold on eBay. I subsequently added various other panels over the years, all but one of which were from the same era (early/mid-70s) and one STS era panel (early ‘80s)
Later on I built a sloping wooden cabinet to house them all in, with a new power supply. I put the dual sequencer panels at the bottom and the other 6 panels rising upwards from them
There is something so enjoyable and rewarding in patching the Serge, mainly due to the use of banana cables all through the system regardless of type of signal (either control or signal). It allows for utterly complex and unconventional sound and composition creation. In fact, the way it works, especially with a large system, is that it intertwines the practice of creating sounds and composing music with those sounds into one homogenous process, more so than any other system I know of. »

The album which first introduced me to ambient, although not the first one I owned... an experience that is both wistful and soothing, never too dark yet not suited to being described as joyful. One of Hainbach's finest works. Dimitriy Dzyuba

Perceptual Geography

Completely amazing, singular work of art from a modern master of the Serge system. In a time when modular has become shorthand for self-generating prog patches Perceptual Geography presents a diorama of voltages - land, sea and time all narrated by the crackling of electricity. killtime
