This piece of music currently stands as the closest incarnation of my live set. It is largely improvised with only a rough guideline to work with. Piecing the recording together only becomes planned after the initial session has been recorded. This way of working retains spontaneity.
This recording in particular was recorded at my home in Estonia in one take, with piano and electronic/rhythmic overdubs. In essence, Pretty fucking raw.
