An experimental multi-section composition combining ambient textures with live acoustic performance.

The track features a live-recorded drum kit and string quartet, with the arrangement moving through contrasting sections that range from intimate ambient passages to more rhythmically active and dynamic moments.

I was responsible for the complete production, including composition, arrangement, recording of the live musicians, editing, mixing and mastering. The production was built around the contrast between organic acoustic performances and atmospheric sonic textures.

An original trip-hop influenced track built around female vocals and a detailed electronic production.

I handled the project from the initial musical concept through the final master, including composition, arrangement, vocal and instrumental recording, editing, sound selection and design, mixing and mastering.

The production combines atmospheric electronic textures with organic musical elements, creating a dark and spacious sound while keeping the vocal performance at the center of the arrangement.

This project demonstrates my ability to combine electronic production with a strong focus on songwriting, arrangement and sound design.
