After the successful release and favorable press from my earlier
releases ~ I sensed the need to create again. Within a 10-day span in
January 2008, I composed/conceived and finished my third release ~
The Persistence of Ambience. This shorter workflow allowed a clearer
reflection of the composer's immediate world-line with less "time"
separation. I found this marathon type of approach a real catharsis.
When I felt "empty" ~ I stopped the creative process. Four long-form
ambient pieces each easily flow one into the other for an overall
similar yet distinct experience. I wanted to journey along a path of
well-lit surrealism in sound that reflected my inmost feelings.

Those of you who know of "Timesteps" by W. Carlos on the Clockwork
Orange release will understand some of my inspiration compositionally
speaking but The Persistence of Ambience is much less helter-skelter.
After experimenting with tense & dark ambient soundscapes, I felt the
need to express a newness in my life leaning towards the Light. The
Persistence of Ambience echoes resolution, relaxation, revelations &
returning to peace. Tension & release are employed compositionally as
it produces balance but the intensity of stressful tones is greatly
subdued.

The presence of natural or "found sound" is interwoven as the synth
tones themselves called for such. Sometimes the synth textures spoke
rain or water or machine. When this happened, I decided to mirror the
virtual with realities we have each encountered. This somehow was
deeply relaxing to my psyche as soon as I combined the soundmaps. It
made warm yet sterile synths seem more alive, organic and I fely
myself "go back" in time to deep memories. I hope thus is true for the
listener as well. Enjoy!
