about

Constrained by Endless Possibilities is a concept album that explores different ideas (the precision of the digital world vs the imperfect human nature) and approaches to music creation (studio composition vs live recording) by focusing on three electronic instruments: a modular synthesizer and two Roland drum machines (TR-606 and TR-707).
The TR-606 and TR-707 drum machines were used to create the rhythmic foundations of the tracks while the modular synthesizer was used in many different ways to create the different timbres and textures.
The first three tracks (Seditortem, CMPTR_Controlled and FOLD_PATTRN11) were created and edited digitally while the last four were played and recorded live in a single take, without any further edits or post-production.

"Neither the Same nor Different" was recorded live on January 20th, 2015.
"Mindful Insights" was recorded live on December 12th, 2014.
"Beyond the Imperfections" was recorded live on April 3rd, 2015.
"4Tracks (Bonus Track)" was recorded live on November 4th, 2014.
