about

"Order in Chaos" is an ambient album composed by using mathematical equations and algorithms. The data was primarily extracted from fractals, logistic - arithmetic functions, and other systems. "Order in Chaos" is a tribute to the beauty of algorithmic music, the unpredictability and playfulness of machine assisted creation.

It's pointillist composition balances from ambient to meditation music, creating a headspace soundscape of the wonderful world of code, physics, space and microcosmic exploration. Each listening is an opportunity for the listener to discover new details, that remained unnoticed before.

Different forms of sound, object to the presence of unformed large shapes. The presence of patterns led by varied forms repetition (amplitude, spatialisation, pitch, and through their relationship with other sound materials, embrace various types of behavior (feelings and bodily sensations of static progression, moving backwards, or moving forwards).

The album evolves from a careful, and precise construction of points, unformed and formed shapes, to reach the emergence of patterns. As one track follows another, the perception of patterns, the observation of their interaction and the subjective interpretation, guides the listener to perceive construction blocks, complex elaborated architectures that content and merge sound objects and patterns that have been perceived in the early tracks.

For deeper immersion, using headphones is recommended.
