about

Bike Trail takes you on a walk with my friend Piet and me. You can hear bikes passing by, pebbles and sand crunching under our feet and people playing frisbee and enjoying the sun. After a while we decide to see where our bikes take us.

The field recordings in the background have been recorded in the summer of 2020, close to the Elster Flutbett (canal) in Leipzig.

The Volca Modular part is an improvisation recorded at the Cosupener See (lake) in Leipzig. The Volca is being processed with SunVox and an array of delays, echoes and loopers.

It was later dubbed with the Alea which provides percussive drive to the track. Both oscillators have been summed and put through a tube amplifier and mixed live with a Fostex X-26.
The result has been recorded straight onto tape. There are three versions of the track, the third of which you can find on the album.
