Alex Callenberger - Redetermination (Bandcamp Self Release)

WHAT THE COVER LOOKS LIKE:

WHAT WE SAY:

There is a lot of endeavour in the synthesizer music world, much of it overly familiar but Alex Callenberger, guided by earthly emotions, is forging a distinctly unworldly path through the, as yet un-instagrammed, beauty spots of the solar system.

WHAT THE RELEASE NOTES SAY:

These songs are a deep dive into the uncharted soundscape of sonic creation. To explore the unknown, one must cast off all they have learned. Strip away the layers of all preconceptions. Drop them like soiled boots on a weathered hardwood floor. Admit ignorance. Become a vessel of humility and wonder.

My work holds no claims of ingenuity. You might call it atmospheric, ambient, electronic or minimal, but to me all I see is myself, always a loner, a sceptic, a ronin - gone rouge. Whatever it is, I take no credit. I get my cues from a subtle Muse. A sassy shot caller by day and a satin siren by night. Once or twice I got lucky, meeting her when the time was right.

In the silence and mystery of the midnight hours, each song unfurled. In the time for contemplation. The time when Meaning and Purpose hash it out on an imaginary neon battlefield. Let this album become your soundtrack for such battles. Those that end in triumph and those that dissolve in defeat. Humbly, I will be your company.
