about

A study created quickly in December 2022.
28 clarinets vibrating on a spectrum of 10.286hz.
21,600 sine wave oscillators create a plasmatic mass that is neither noisy nor harmonious.
The first step towards making this work real time and interactive.
Musical principles imagined by Horatiu Radulescu, Dane Rudhyar, Giacinto Scelsi, Maryanne Amacher, Karlheinz Stockhausen, Eliane Radigue, and others, filtered through... me...
An ocean woven with waves of joy.
An ocean woven with waves of sadness.

about

Sam Dunscombe Berlin, Germany

I am a performer-composer working with clarinets, computers, and microphones. I'm interested in the different ways music lets us experience time, which has drawn me to areas like spectralism, just intonation, free improv, new complexity, field recording, audio engineering, electronic music, etc. I have recordings on Black Truffle, Another Timbre, Wandelweiser, Marginal Frequency, Mode, and others ... more

The uncertainty of the next moment and the perfect choice of expression, intensity and tension. This record is not only of historical value, it is the equivalent of seeing a phenomenon that has never been seen before. A fundamental thing. jiristepan

Two Sisters
by Sarah Davachi

supported by 4 fans who also own “Second Study in Mass Plasma Synthesis”

Rewards patience and an open ear. A few years ago, I thought Davachi's minimal Drone tracks were boring. Then, I saw several people gushing over this one. I tried again - and was still bored out of my mind. A few months passed, I gave it another try. Now, it's one of my favourites of 2022. aisthetic
