Arkana was created 07/2004-11/2006.
This work is inspired by Tarot cards. However, there’s no esoteric thing you need to know for enjoying the music. Each card represents something called “archetype” according to C. G. Jung’s psychology – an innate universal prototype for ideas, such as the shadow, the wise old man, etc.
Due to download statistics, the “Revolution” and the “Will” are by far the most popular ones, each around 400 complete downloads each month. However, I still insist you should listen more to “Treasure” and “Surrender” which are the most beautiful pieces here for me.

Staircase war created 06/2009. It is quite an easy listening electronic piece. It consists of two almost identical sections, some old fashioned sequencing and retro soundscapes.

This is a very unusual filter. It consists of three separate bandpass filters with resonance control, each having a built-in LFOs for filter frequency modulation. A similar concept had been used in the Korg PS 3100. Details can be found at Doepfer’s Homepage:
http://www.doepfer.de/a127.htm
I’ve put the usual three A-110 VCOs (sawtooth wave) into the A-127 filter, then each of the three individual outputs into an A-138m Matrix mixer. Here I assign the first and second filter to a first VCA (panned left) and the second and third filter to a second VCA (panned right).
The filters were controlled by their internal LFOs at first, later I plug in outputs of an A-143-9 VC Quadrature LFO for audio frequency filter modulation.
