Spectral

"Spectral" is the first solo album of Robin Schlochtermeier. It's a set of slow pieces that function like distant echoes of childlike experiences of the natural and material world. Spectral was recorded using a British upright piano from the 1950s with original worn strings, which are occasionally dampened with poster putty. The other elements are all forms of electronics and sound design, including a software synth and custom programmed sounds generated from the composer's bank of original sample recordings. One of the aims for the album was to explore a limited palette of sounds. Some pieces only contain 3 layers of sound, while some are a little more complex. ??The intention was to create space and openness in the arrangements?g, according to Robin. ??This principle also led me to explore longer and longer forms. As I went on I felt increasingly drawn to longer emotional arcs, resulting finally in Sonnenstaub.
