Kaleidoscope offers an extraordinary sonic journey that transcends traditional stereo formats. By harnessing the power of Dolby Atmos and binaural mixing, the music takes on a whole new dimension, immersing listeners in an intimate and immersive experience that goes beyond CDs or vinyl.
Dolby Atmos revolutionizes sound by precisely positioning and moving sound as dynamic objects within a three-dimensional space. This meticulous control creates an immersive atmosphere where every element of the music breathes and interacts, enveloping listeners from all directions.
In headphone listening, binaural mixing brings remarkable realism by simulating how sound interacts with the human ear. Instruments and voices materialize in their respective positions, with some seemingly floating around the listener or whispering in their ear. This technique creates an illusion of being present within the music, adding a captivating level of intimacy.
The decision not to release the album on CD or vinyl is driven by the desire to preserve the immersive and intimate qualities of Dolby Atmos and binaural mixing. These spatial audio techniques excel when experienced through formats that fully embrace their unique capabilities. By focusing on digital and streaming platforms, the album ensures that listeners can fully embrace the multidimensional soundstage and lifelike intimacy, exactly as intended.
Moreover, recording at the legendary Abbey Road Studios enhances the overall experience. Renowned for its unparalleled acoustics and illustrious history, Abbey Road Studios infuses a distinctive magic into every recording. By integrating immersive mixing techniques, listeners will have the unprecedented opportunity to feel as if they are within the very walls of Abbey Road, immersing themselves in its enchanting atmosphere and allowing the music to resonate with remarkable authenticity.

As a composer and artist, my musical expression is a fusion of diverse genres, drawing from classical, electronic, and experimental styles. I approach music composition like an architect, constructing intricate and multi-dimensional soundscapes, utilizing a varied palette of sonic textures, shapes, and forms. In my view, music is a holistic sensory experience, and as such, I strive to integrate visual design elements into my work, such as color, texture, and composition, to create a synesthetic interplay of sound and visual perception. Ultimately, I see my music as an expression of my individual artistic vision, a reflection of my personal creative inspirations and stylistic inclinations.
Since 2020 all my works are published by Universal Edition.
