Jcran I absolutely love this album. Every song is unique in its own way and it really makes this album fun to listen to. The only thing is that the songs do repeat the loops a lot. But overall I really enjoy this. Great work. Favorite track: Prepend.

Benjamin Doran Lush in it's simplicity. Elegant. Time stretches/slows. Each piece sounds twice as long as it lasts. Immersive. Favorite track: Infinite Ocean.

Orchestral Studies Collectanea presents seven previously unreleased orchestral movements alongside newly remastered interpretations of compositions first featured on Orchestral Tape Studies and Orchestral Tape Studies [Tyresta Reworks].

Curated and produced by zakè with additional production from longtime collaborator Tyresta, this collection continues zakè's exploration of modern orchestral minimalism. Each piece unfolds as a series of layered and fragmented symphonic loops, quietly referencing the traditions of minimalist and neoclassical composition.

Through the interplay of subdued drones, environmental textures, and recurring melodic phrases, the album constructs an atmosphere of patient evolution. Every movement is shaped with precision, offering subtle variations that reveal new emotional depth upon repeated listening. Orchestral Studies Collectanea stands as both a continuation and a refinement of zakè’s orchestral sound world, a meditation on repetition, tone, and the quiet persistence of beauty.

Arranged and produced by zakè. Additional treatments on tracks 11-14 by Tyresta. Mastered at Schwebung Mastering by Stephan Mathieu. Design and layout by zakè.
