picturesque - a final expression remains to be found (glasvocht)

the man responsible for this project is filip ghysen (also from teledroon and he ordinars seaman) and the idea for the project came from the thought of making a soundtrack for the paintings of his favorite painters like francis bacon and mark rothko additionally he recorded ‘dedicated to painters’ when he started glaswocht as a tapelabel. then the recording ‘imaginary paintings’ was created as an outcome of the idea for making imaginary paintings with sound instead of a paintbrush. a very interesting concept for experimenting which is later developed in a cdr ‘the chaotic comfort of electronic set’ based on structuralized sound, accidents, guitar, samples, electronics, toys... the next project with this concept grows into the first cd released under the name ‘a final expression remains to be found’ which is an album with 7 tracks put together as a whole (track) of more or less 45 minutes. the tracks glide into one another developing from complete noise to synth noise with melodic moments. the first 14 minute track itself contains different noise and drone moments that get quiter and louder like the tide and ebb to realize later in the second one the slow melodic electronics that after all indicate warmer colours. when we get into the third area we’re still surrounded by the warm coloring although more experimental, while, in the fourth the experiment goes one step further. the next sector goes back to the noisy environment, melodiously and slowly constructed. the piano samples and loops are recognizable in the melody of the sixth track which again has a noise production in a completely abstract expression which in the end gains a rhythmical character that at the very end of the final part goes abstract again, quietly and noisy. different moods, different sounds, dynamics, abstraction and concretion and finally different colors expressed in sound which remain only to the listener to discover.
