about

Xejn is about nothingness and various forms through which it is made manifest. 

Best reserved for times when you want to listen to something but nothing in particular.

The titles were inspired by the work of two different poets:

Tracks 1 & 2: 

“Without madness what is man
But a wholesome beast,
Postponed corpse that begets?”

― Fernando Pessoa, Poems of Fernando Pessoa

Tracks 3 & 4: 

“Within a Hell of godless emptiness
submit yourself ever more to sleep's spell.
All is a dream, all is nothingness:
the flower of the world is the asphodel.”

-Gabriele D'Annunzio, Poema paradisiaco

---

As with my past releases, the cover photograph served as both thematic inspiration and as the raw data source from which all of the sounds were created. This is achieved by converting the photograph into sound as raw data and then manipulating it with effects in real-time. In essence, you are hearing me "play" the photograph as an instrument.

Fully improvised and presented here just as it was recorded without any editing or post production.
