Here's the video to my latest album, Pele's Fire – A Volcanic Symphony for Peace. Filmed by Tim Freeman, Associate Professor of Philosophy at the University of Hawai’i Hilo. What an adventure, composing live on the edge of a volcano 🌋 #volcano #eruption #kilauea #ambient #electricviolin #peace

As an electric violinist, I’ve always been chasing the perfect sound. I never liked the super compressed flat/sterile “electric violin” sound, but I enjoy the benefits of not running into feedback issues on large/loud stages. I’m currently reworking my pedalboard. Check out my Substack!

Love your podcast. Thank you! It’s a fascinating experience between “oh so deep 😌” and “oh so cheesy 🤦” And: it’s interesting to observe which one of the two I’m experiencing depending on my inner and outer status quo 😄

My work is inspired by Steve Reich, Brian Eno, and Philip Glass, to name only three of the many great minimal composers. I just found out Brian Eno will drop his new album the same day my new ambient work will be released. What a very cool coincidence 🌋
