Tauern
New music on the myspace page.

Lately, my music is leaning more towards the rhythmic side of things. All
the way back in 1995, around which time I heard Lifeforms by The Future
Sound of London, my midi experimentations where all based around beats and
rhythm. I won't say it was anywhere near as good as what FSOL did, but I
certainly was inspired.

Searching for my own musical voice, it was ambient music that I started to
make. Lately, many of the soundscapes I created for The Chronicles of
Spellborn (www.tcos.com) contain passages reminding of my ambient work. In
return however, some of the work for Spellborn (which turned out to be
rythmic) is now inspiring my own music. Maalbeek
(http://www.matthewflorianz.com/maalbeek.html) already contains loops and
patterns, but not yet beats.

Although I consider the tracks I will share over the coming few weeks, far
from "album" material, I think they are still interesting enough to share.
The music is arranged like I would an album and the name Tauern relates to
the many trips we made in the green depicted (and now probably gone) car,
driving from Holland to Austria. The album loosely chronicles the long night
of driving through Germany, sleeping most of the way. In the 1970's we still
had to travel parts by train but the most exciting thing was always waking
up to see mountains everywhere.

Fifth track of Tauern album added.
New music on the myspace page.

The fifth track of the six track album Tauern has been released on the
myspace page.

It is the longest piece and carries the albums title. Similar to previous
uploads, Tunnels and Bergen, it also features undulating, repeating and
rythmic layers. There are also similarities with
Spiegelend ( http://www.shopsonic.com/preview/128/5618/spiegelend.mp3 ) from
the album Maalbeek ( http://www.matthewflorianz.com/maalbeek.html ).

Follow the link to the myspace page and use the integrated player to listen
to the album:

All the tracks overlap so you might here a bit of the previous track if you
jump directly to the fifth.
