Spatzer - Derive

Spatzer - DeriveDrive is the debut by Sptzer, a new project by emerging multidisciplinary artist Aiken Bmers Muller. As generative based compositions, Sptzer's sound designs balance the formalist traditions of ambient music with an insouciant kismet, creating compelling soundscapes that gently invigorate the senses. Bmers Muller has done his homework: Drive conceptually draws on both Debord's Situationalist texts as conceptual inspiration, and his direct experience

Dérive is the debut by Spätzer, a new project by emerging multidisciplinary artist Aiken Bömers-Muller. As generative-based compositions, Spätzer's sound designs balance the formalist traditions of ambient music with an insouciant kismet, creating compelling soundscapes that gently invigorate the senses. Bömers-Muller has done his homework: Dérive conceptually draws on both Debord's Situationalist texts as conceptual inspiration, and his direct experience as a matriculated stage actor. After several trips to Berlin's MaerzMusik festival to participate in workshops and field recording, Bömers-Muller' work has evolved radically from his Bellingham-based folk indie band laughingstock (sic) and their 2017 full-length release "Thank You, Laughingstock" on Flat Field Records. One can literally hear this new awareness of the tensions between randomness versus structure, and intentionality versus emergence in these algorithmically-driven soundscapes. Some have described these creations as post-ambient. More precisely, they are soundscapes for the future.
