about

a series of solo guitar improvisations. for this release I have set myself the following rules ("dogmas"):

- arrange a composition of black american music
- complement it with free ambient soundscapes
- play each pair live in one take*
- no further overdubs are added
- the use of a live looper is allowed
- the played material will - if ever - be very minimally edited

this album is dedicated to the loving memory of eugen hahn (1941-2020).
