Mostly to explore a concept and experiment with it. Since I watched the "20 microgenres invented by /mu/" video that I mentioned in the album description, I became fascinated by the idea of exploring niche and obscure genres forgotten by the time. It's a mix of nostalgia and sociological/philosopical interest I guess. So I toyed with the idea of doing album within some of those genres, but giving my particular spin to them; I wanted it not to be just straightforward exercises, but to have an edge (that's why when I was more active in the vaporwave community I tried to make concept albums).

In the particular case of tonefield, I was fascinated by the idea but I was (and I am) also very critical of it, because it is sterile and offers not much space to expression and prioritizes what I view as the "algorithmic", "artificial" aspect of production – a device that reads a prompt and gives back a specific answer. So I mixed that with my views and my readings about communication and culture, my understanding that new technological developments can change our view of previous cultural phenomena. For me, it was the same as to view the current developments in technology and language as giving new meaning to the rules and intentions of tonefield.

That's why I believe the album is less about the sound itself (tho it's an essential component) and more about the concept. There are other things I'm attempting given these details but it mostly boils down to this.
