October 15 2022: My version of Terry Riley’s iconic ‘In C’ is finally released! Entitled ‘In C Electronic’, I’ve programmed and performed the piece using the Anyma Phi physical modelling synthesizer.
It’s available for streaming via Spotify, and all your favourite streaming platforms; Tidal, Apple Music, iTunes, Youtube, you name it…
”It is a symphony of electronic sound! It's like a beautifully woven magic carpet of sound where the weaving is done so beautifully that you barely notice where one thread stops and another starts and it takes the listener to so many different destinations and feelings too. I particulalry like the last three minutes where it felt the sound journeying elements all created a rounded synthesis. Really awe inspiring.”
