I’ve had the honor to contribute the sound score to “Animalis Prismatis”, a video installation by artist duo IRIS-A-MAZ. The installation premiered in an exhibition in June 2020 at Galerie 21 at Künstlerhaus Vorwerkstift.

After our recent EP on UVB-76 Music in April, “Lenses Dances” is the debut album from Bokeh, my collab project with Katsunori Sawa. It is the result of 6 years of working together remotely from Berlin and Kyoto with music being the language we both felt most comfortable communicating in.
The album comes on 12″ vinyl along with digitals on US label Mirae Arts.
Artwork, logo and layout come from Paul Nicholson, the UK based designer, famously known for being the creator of the Aphex Twin logo and the Laughing Man character from Ghost in the Shell.
Kassian Troyer of D&M was responsible for mastering and cut. Worldwide distribution through SRD.
Katsunori Sawa and I put together a podcast mix for Lost in Ether. Thanks for listening.
Bokeh is a collaborative project Katsunori Sawa and I started in 2014 with releases on The Weevil Neighbourhood.
Our latest “Mars & Blaze” EP was released on UVB-76 Music in April 2020 and is available through the usual sources and the label’s Bandcamp.

Beyond Voltage 1 was the first of three mix CDs compiled and mixed by A-Sides to showcase releases from his own label Fuze Recordings, a sublabel of Eastside Records, run between 1997 and 2005.
This mix is a re-recording of Beyond Voltage 1 done in June 2017. Certain rules apply (no changes in track order, vinyl only…)
