about

At the end of the 70's, Luc Debeck got exposed to the radio programme "Music from the cosmos" discovering music by Klaus Schulze, Tangerine Dream, or Brian Eno. He bought a Roland Jupiter JX-3P with a Tascam 4-track recorder and started making songs using the synthesizer and its accompanying sequencers.
As the years went by, he acquired a few modular systems and discovered the so-called West Coast style synthesis and sold all his synthesizers to build a small Buchla system.
The following year he built a much bigger system, the WESCOFOR, West Coast and Deep Forest part, 2 synths in 1.
Besides music, he has been doing astronomy and astrophotography for many years and with great success.

lyrics

Act I-II-III is an experimental piece where I married the Buchla analogue synthesizer with acoustic instruments like Leafaudio Microphonic Soundbox, or my Harley Benton electric violin with which I like to experiment by using a lot of effects in different layers of the mix.
The composition is based on timbral variations and unusual sounds : Gong and varied metallic sounds, a rotating mechanical machine… Conveying a mystical feel as if you were in a remote and unknown place, abstract with a dramatic touch where you also feel loneliness… Influenced by surrealist paintings such as works of Savador Dali, René Magritte and other famous artists, this composition illustrates how I study their works and draw inspiration from them to transpose their art in music.

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. 69dragynz

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
