The end result is a collage of sounds recorded in relay at different locations.
Everything required to make the recordings will be packaged up and each participant will be tasked with recording a number of sound elements to accompany selected short graphic novels as well as documenting... Read More

HOFFNUNG 3000
Berlin
decentralized and anonymized festival for art, music and theory
with Sam Andreae, participants
HOFFNUNG 3000 was a festival for music, art and theory in Berlin initiated by BLATT 3000 together with KLANGKELLER. It was an experiment in social, artistic and theoretical collaboration. HOFFNUNG 3000 did not have any curatorial themes, instead we asked one main question: How do we organise ourselves in our social, artistic & theoretical communities?

Everyone, Always, Honestly
graphic compositional method
This is a composition for trio, or multiple trios, first performed and developed with Laurie Tompkins, Suzie Whaites and Otto Willberg. The idea is to have a process for making graphic scores, rather than a singular definitive score, which will then be interpreted in predefined ways ways during performances. In this first series the focus is on communicating your interpretation of the score to your fellow performers in a very immediate and spontaneous way. The parameters you’re working with are public/private and voice/object.

Tombed Visions
solo electro-acoustic saxophone album
Very happy to have my debut solo record released on Manchester label Tombed Visions. It was recorded expertly in my basement in Macclesfield by Jon Tippler. Here are a few words people have said about it:
“Solo” reviewed by Daniel Spicer, The Wire, 2015
“Andreae delves into an impressive vocabulary of skilfully controlled overtones, rapid keypad flutters and fragile harmonics, glistening like filaments held up to the light.”
“Solo” reviewed by Paul Margee at Louder Than Noise, June 2015

installation and performances
Residency with Mio Ebisu and performance with Matilda Rolfsson and Pip. Here’s a nice review of the event.

Curiously Tea She Said
composition for a large ensemble
A graphic composition for large improvising ensemble exploring small units of repeated material and displaced interactions. With this piece I was interested in putting up barriers to challenge the usual formal patterns which occur when larger ensembles improvise together. The very natural desire to mimic and find mutual consensus is challenged with arbitrary mental processes.
