2 High-Quality CD-rs in a standard (double) jewel case, with printed booklet, inlay and CD imprint.
Album description:
Most of the tracks on this album were recorded live during two streaming events in Michael Brückner's little home studio near Mainz (Germany):
"Morphic Resonance - Episode 27" in April 2023 (tracks 2 - 7, and parts of track 1) and "Cyclical Fest 2022" (tracks 9 - 11). Track 1 (a studio recording) and 8 (another live recording) are closely connected to the "Morphic Resonance" gig, both recorded during the preparations of that concert.
Tracks 12 and 13 originally were a live improvisation using only the Behringer Deep Mind 6 and a simple Boss Looping Pedal, but were edited and processed in the studio later. To make a full circle, track 11 is using some of the sounds that open up track 1...
While Michael had no specific concept in mind when performing this music (most of which was composed in real time), there emerged a sound journey that is at times dramatic and at other times slightly melancholic (and sometimes both at the same time).
Two tracks (9 and 3) are variations of pieces Michael had played live in earier concerts.
