APOCALYPSE VARIATIONS
APOCALYPSE VARIATIONS: the hopes and fears of all the years
is a one session collection, a short story of solo piano improvisations, laid down in the summer of
2001. Further editing was done, but kept to a minimum. When i listened to it back the first time,
I heard the influences of Bach, Satie, Eno, Shipp, Duchamp: spec. "la mariee mise a nu par ses
celibataires, meme. erratum musical." and "musical sculpture"(realized by the s.e.m. ensemble).
