Michael Chocholak's abstract electronic and electroacoustic soundscapes where any sound source is considered a potential instrument from skin drum to pc. Influe
The electronic and electroacoustic musics of Michael Chocholak. Soundscapes; abstract, visceral and imagick. Structured improvisations, surreal architectures, alternate mythologies. Music for the imagination as well as the ears. A fair amount of it probably qualifies for what Laurie Anderson termed 'the Difficult Listening Hour', but of all that I've written, this is the music I feel closest to. Most of the tracks here are listed as 'experimental', but I believe Edgard Varese said it best; "I do not write experimental music. My experimenting is done before I write the music. Afterward it is the listener who must experiment."

Story behind the song
Michael Chocholak, electroacoustic composer from Oregon and Ooy, electronic composer from Tokyo and member of Conrad Schnitzler's reformed Kluster, exchanged, processed and arranged each other's raw material (samples and field recordings) into a series of compositions that grew and coalesced into "The Hadron Suite". The music, spanning 68 minutes, is varying between electroacoustic sci-fi drone and granular noise. The drive to know and understand the cosmos shines like a beacon as if from Plato's fifty six circulating crystal orbs down through the ages to be focused now by one huge spherical lens, a vacuum more perfect than outer space where fifty ton magnets cooled by liquid helium spin opposing orbits of Pandora's threads, revealing the birth of our universe and opening doors to other dimensions; the Large Hadron Collider. http://www.triplebath.gr/releases/trb.028_the_hadron_suite.html
