about: Dedicated to Gerhard Vielmeier, 1923-2005.

"Reset" contains original pieces created between 2004 and 2009. With the amount of moods and settings and events such a five-year journey encompasses, it seems amazing that a coherent story is readily identifiable across all five tracks I've chosen to include on the album.

What this story is to you will most likely be different from what it is to me, and this is paramount in any music that is ever released for public consumption. Hence, there will be no hints as to what it means to me. What you identify as the text, the subtext or the sub-subtext (continue) depends entirely on you, the listener.

All I hope is that you can find something worthwhile in these pieces, just as I do when listening to them. It's not easy listening to most ears, but I make this lo-fi, experimental music solely for my own enjoyment; if you happen to enjoy these pieces as well, bonus!

A quick word about mixing and mastering: there is none. Well, very little, and not done professionally. "Reset" is a homegrown production, and I'm largely happy with the way it sounds. There's clipping in some places, subsonics in others, and compression artifacts in the oldest piece, "Reset", but I'm fine with it; I've come to consider them part of the music; they add to its character.
