about

There are forms of musical entities that are not expressed properly in elaborate composition but need a more spontaneous approach.

These recordings are loop improvisations performed live using M-Tron software which simulates the many different sounds that can or could be played on a mellotron. Some of these fascinating sounds are used here. Except very few overdubbed synth sounds everything you hear is taken from the old mellotron sound libraries.

Emotional Sense
by Georgina Brett

this album is extraordinary; Georgina creates such beautiful moods by just looping her soft and clear voice and so building wonderful vocal textures, layer upon layer. So great! My favourite: "Etusta" Karsten Schulze

Escape Veloopity
by Michael Peters

on this album, Michael creates very different soundscapes using his frippy guitar techniques; you hear very interesting sound and rhythm structures. I'm a big fan of track no. 11: "shredded Freddie". Karsten Schulze
