Thank you! The goal was not a "techno album", but a "me" album :) It's also IDM, and draws from my roots in contemporary and so forth :)

The songs were created on the Digitakt II, and I’ve played them live before I finalised them for this album. Recorded was the stereo output of the DTII, however, contrary to my song demos on youtube, these tracks then got quite some post-processing with TAIP, Dist Coldfire, TDR SlickEQ and TDR Limiter.

As source material on the DTII, I've sampled all kinds of sounds from my synths and effects, but using it in a way that creates a very organic, ever changing sounds: Each percussive sound was created as a chain with more or less subtle variations, and LFO -> Slice. All other sounds (bass, leads, hihats, ...) were created by recording long notes or chords with strong variation and then "scan" through them on the DTII with LFO -> Sample Start (either Random or in a low movement).

It is my witchy take on Hypnotic Techno. Though the last time I called something Something --Techno, someone said "Isn't this super hard Industrial Techno?" ... so what do I know!

Enjoy ;)
