It is all around us, ambience. A notion of distance and proximity that we all get its vibes. It can be as big as the air around us or as small as the space between two atoms, it can reside above the ground, under or inside it. Wherever it is, and whomever it affects, it has a grave impact on our world, both physically and spiritually. This album captures the essence of ambience in some of its forms, brings to the listener a grasp of its true nature. With fast rhythms the music is somehow in the style of Moonbooter.

In continuation to the previous album, Blind Vision, Atmosphere captures the soundscapes of the '70 in electronic music. Listeners will be able to find hints of old Tangerine Dream and Jean Michel Jarre music of that time embedded within a contemporary sound, melodies and production. This album took 6 months to produce from start to finish and the process of making it was smooth and flowing, indicating a harmonic creation.
The album itself is structured as one long piece.

This studio album was conceived out of the concept of the hybrid world we live in of analog and digital co-existing, especially in music. In composing and producing the album, special care was taken to sound palette selection as well as instrumentation and song ordering in order to blend together analog and digital sounds and concepts in a fascinating way.
This album is a concept one, with analog style sequences taken from the early moog and ARP step sequences along with early drum module sounds up until rich harmonics and digital pads and solo lines.
In the Jean Michel Jarre-like “Analog” this is evident. “Digital” begins softly, and then it is built up into a nice melodic track. In “Timing”, the sound of a clock is central. The title track with nice sequences and soft rhythms has some traces of Ron Boots’ music. “Hybrid”, again, has a strong sequence.

Darklight is an album of contrast. From the dark atmosphere and sequences of the track dark, to the wide soundscapes of the track light. For me, this album took the longest to finish as I wanted it to sound exactly as I had in mind, and for this I had also built a complete analog modular synthesizer that I could use to create all the sounds and timbres that make up darklight. Darklight ventures further into the realm of analog-driven electronic music by having the modular synthesizer take charge of more than half of the sound and all sounds are original patches. Very few digital and software instruments took part in this album.

When I started composing Moab, I had a concept album in my head that is based on the fusion of Analog synthesize and orchestral sounds, which I carried with me for several years, but did not find the right balance between the two.
Listening to Tron Legacy soundtrack, I immediately recognized that there’s a way to realize my idea of blending analog and orchestra sounds together into something entirely new. Time spent on Moab was considerable as I focused on crafting analog sounds that could be mixed with orchestral sounds of strings and brass in a way for the listener to not easily identify which is which, but once did, could enjoy a new sculpture of sounds.

"Nibiru" is a concept album by the Israeli musician Erez Yaary, who already has composed five albums. The cd depicts the musical voyage of "Nibiru", which is thought to be the 10th planet of the solar system that is affecting Neptune and Pluto's orbits.
Well, overall this is an atmospheric treat with some (ethnic) voice-samples, featuring lots of wavering textures with a slight heavenly edge. Next to some sedate tracks there’s also room for a bit more rhythmic/dance stuff on "Alchemy of the Mind", which doesn’t really fit in here, although it’s a nice try.
Next to several weak, slightly experimental and too common sounding passages ("Remote Viewing" should have been skipped as well) in the music I also encountered a few unnecessary drop-outs and cracks in the sound spectrum.
Nibiru, thought to be the 10th planet of the solar system that is affecting Neptune and Pluto's orbits, has a rotation span around the sun of 3600 years. 6000 years old Sumerian clay tablets portray a race called Anunnaki that have come down to earth boarding chariots of fire in order to rule the earth.
Sumar is an ancient civilization that flourished in the area called Mesopotamia, between 4500 B.C. and 2000 B.C. Many modern concepts have been formed in Sumar, like the Calendar and the Metric System.
This is the musical voyage of the 10th planet "Nibiru" and its inhabitants the "Anunnaki", which have come to planet earth and changed its nature forever.

A retrospective work of music of past projects in view of modern times. All tracks where carefully selected from albums "Projects I" till "Projects IV" to extract essence and ideas out of them to be the seed for this album. All music was re-composed and re-arranged, freshening the music with new sounds and textures as well as new melodies and atmospheres.

Continuing the journey started in the album Signal, Signal dives deeper into fusing orchestral and synthesised sounds and melodies. New harmonic structured are layered on top of electronic beats and sequences generated by the analog modular synthesizer, which delivers a new and exciting sound tapestry.
Signal's sound is darker and more 'analog' in nature due to the use of vintage sound processing that deliver classical '70 ambience to the music.

A solar voyage through 7 musical passages combining atmospheres and melodies interwoven with energetic synthesized sounds and sequences. Huge analog sounds, bright pads, crystal bells and a lot of mystic melodies like to escort the audience straight to the middle of our sunsystem.
