about

"In real life" is a long-form Ambient exploration in two parts.

(i) What it is and used to be
(ii) As life goes on

It was inspired by a conversation I had with my son in late 2020.

Composing the music, I was thinking about our life during the COVID-19 pandemic and my own childhood when I was my son's age.

The foundation of the track was performed live on a Modular Synthesizer in one continuous take. The resulting 40-minute recording was enhanced with smaller fragments and bigger pieces, but at its core it still represents that very moment in time.

It is spontaneous, soothing, and playful, yet noisy, challenging, and somewhat dissonant.

It is a snapshot of real life.

"In real life" was originally released titled "IRL" in May 2021 on the Data Cult Audio podcast. This Bandcamp version was remixed from the original source recordings and differs sonically and structurally from the original version.

Thank you to Adam Filipkowski and Data Cult Audio for the support.
