about

Erich continues to blur genres by entering the decade with his debut solo album, A House of Last Witnesses. The new release delves into the realms of dark ambient, digital noise, computer-driven classical, and generatively-created soundscapes that draw influence from early electronic music pioneers and the textural worlds of Midori Takada. Tracks like “Crossroads in a Fever Dream” or “Shame Loops” explore the possibilities of sonic worlds created through the coding language Supercollider, while “Speaking in Tongues” relies on a MIDI-driven Disklavier to perform a piano work incapable for human performance. Cisum Percussion’s Washington Squared duo round out the album, with a digitally-augmented version of Barganier’s composition, “Bastards of Empty Space.” Whether you are craving digitally-driven experimentation, cutting edge contemporary classical music, or hallucinatory ambiance, you will find something to love on this debut album.
