ELECTRONIC MUSIC PRODUCTION
Writing music is something I have been doing for a very long time. This is an endless craft allowing me to be nerdy and creative. A great way to relax and mediate through sound. The aim is to enjoy the process and releasing some of the material when it feels right. The first few years were spent mainly experimenting with the art of mixing. Lately it's been more about analogue equipment and the fun part of jamming and creating workflows.
STUDIO RECORDING
Live recording musicians in a studio is a necessary practice to develop the creative engineering and session planning skill needed to produce a mix while bouncing back within a team dynamic. This is all about keeping the buzz going and getting the best possible performance from the band. This requires to be fast and effective at all time, but preparation and smart scheduling is key.

EXPERIMENTAL SOUND - SONIFICATION
This is an experimental approach towards the world of sonification. This process requires to map datas to elements of sound. Achieving this will draw a representation as a "musical phases", exposing activities within a structured combination of synthesis modulation. The successful conversion depend on a meticulous scaling process versus aesthetic manipulation of sound.
LIFESTYLE IN SYNTHESIS
Pitch, timbre, loudness, depth, and rhythm will be manipulated and analysed to determine the ideal scaling factor.
Data used: Hourly Nike fuel / Daily calories / Daily miles / Daily steps / Daily count of active time (hr) /
Daily Fuel score / Daily Average Nike Fuel-hour / Most Active hour
STRUCTURE
One bar represent one hour in the sequencer. Each hour is played by one single MIDI note. Tempo is based on the average heart rate per minute of a healthy man in his 30s, sets at 63 beats per minute. A change of tempo will occur depending of how active the day was.
90s DANCE MUSIC
Recreating a 90s sound-alike dance music track or dance genre using analogue synthesisers and samplers.
