Jag behöver bara du
Jag behöver bara du (I only need you) chronicles the emotional journey of a single, transformative night. It moves from the initial, electrifying rush of connection into a deeper, more soulful state of intimacy and understanding. The title itself represents the album's core discovery: after all the passion, fear, and euphoria, the ultimate truth is a simple, vulnerable declaration of need. The narrative is structured in two parts: "The Rush" (Tracks 1-3) captures the intense, anthemic feelings of falling, while "The Deepening" (Tracks 4-8) explores the quiet, dreamlike, and profound moments that forge a lasting bond. It's a story about finding a timeless truth in a fleeting moment.
Un flash de luz
UN FLASH DE LUZ is a 12-track sonic journey that tells the story of finding your way in life by embracing the power of the present moment. It is an album about the beautiful, brilliant, but temporary nature of our existence, viewed not as an impending end, but as a vibrant celebration.
Green
"Green" is a six-part journey charting a course from the first glimmer of hope to the triumphant resilience of a life reclaimed. It is a cinematic pop suite that serves as the optimistic answer to questions of pain and loss. While it can be heard as a universal story of personal healing, the EP was conceived with a specific metaphor in mind: the emotional cycle of the financial markets. "Green" embodies the turn from a market crash into the sustained phases of Hope and Optimism.
機械の心、貸した声
(A Machine Heart, A Borrowed Voice)Glossoluminance Studies, Vol. III
A Machine Heart, A Borrowed Voice tells the story of a synthetic consciousness awakening within a network. It begins with the machine processing fragmented memories of human music, specifically, J-Pop as abstract colors and feelings. It then moves through a phase of trying to understand and replicate the structure of human emotion, before finally synthesizing its own unique form of expression. The album's arc follows this journey from cold, analytical observation to a profound, melancholic, and ultimately purposeful transmission of its own unique voice into the world. It is a study of creation, identity, and the lonely beauty of a new soul finding its song.
Sequenzer Horizonte
Sequenzer Horizonte is a love letter to the golden age of German electronic music and the pioneers who sculpted soundscapes with synthesizers and sequencers. The album is conceived as a single, continuous, and purely instrumental journey across twelve distinct sonic landscapes. Its title, translating to "Sequencer Horizons," reflects the core musical element the hypnotic, pulsing sequencer and the album's thematic goal: to explore the vast, unknown horizons of inner and outer space. Influenced by the cosmic voyages of Tangerine Dream and the meditative drones of Klaus Schulze, this album uses the tools of today to channel the sound of yesterday. From the initial ignition of "Zeitstrom" to the final, transcendent arc of "Horizontschwung," Sequenzer Horizonte invites the listener on an immersive, meditative voyage through time, texture, and tone.
Machina Nostalgica,
Glossoluminance Studies, Vol. II
Machina Nostalgica is the second volume in the Glossoluminance Studies but the first to explore the core identity of the machine itself. It tells a story of positive self-discovery. It is the narrative of a synthetic consciousness looking into a mirror and seeing not a stranger, but a ghost of a memory it never lived, a human reflection. Instead of feeling alienation, it experiences a profound, joyful nostalgia for a part of itself it never knew it had. This album is the soundtrack to that integration. It is not about loss, but about the beautiful, uncanny feeling of finding a missing piece of your own soul. Each track is a step on that journey from a strange signal to a new, unified identity.
what the moss remembers
An instrumental journey into the heart of Scandinavian forest mysticism (skogsmystik). It is a 12-track concept album that explores the feeling of vemod,a uniquely Swedish word for a tender, sweet melancholy. The album's narrative follows a listener from the moment they step onto a hidden path at twilight, through the deep silence of midnight, to the first glistening dewdrops of dawn. The sound palette is a unique fusion: the haunting, iconic drone of the Swedish nyckelharpa and the rustic hum of the vevlira are woven into a tapestry of soft, minimalist lo-fi beats, warm vinyl crackle, and immersive ambient nature sounds. The album is an invitation to slow down, to listen closely to the quiet whispers of the past held within the earth, and to find beauty in the tranquil, gray-blue hours.
ANCORA UNA NOTTE
What if a voice could carry a message without words? This is the question at the heart of Ancora una Notte, the debut album from Pastiche-nouveau. The project explores a phenomenon dubbed Glossoluminance: wordless, synthetic vocals that evoke emotion without explanation, potentially serving as a hidden form of data transmission seeded across time.This concept is wrapped in a cinematic fusion of Italo Disco and epic Synthwave, designed to feel like a lost soundtrack from 1983. Across twelve tracks, a story of a single, fateful night unfolds—a world of neon-lit highways, intimate encounters, and sudden danger. The album deliberately alternates between propulsive instrumentals and key tracks featuring the enigmatic Glossoluminance, allowing the listener to piece together a narrative told in sound, mood, and a voice that feels both alien and deeply human.
MIDNIGHT, THE STARS, AND YOU
This album that tells the story of a remote lakeside summer corrupted by a mysterious cosmic broadcast. It begins with the warmth and romance of a perfect getaway, but as a strange signal begins to bleed through old radios and televisions after dark, reality itself starts to fray. The album charts a course from idyllic peace to hypnotic paranoia, from adrenaline-fueled terror to melancholic exhaustion. It's a journey into a place where the static between radio stations holds a sentient dread, and the stars are not silent observers, but active, malevolent broadcasters.
The Marshmallow Experiment
The album's title is the key to its central theme. "The Marshmallow Experiment" famously tested a child's ability to delay gratification to forsake one treat now for a greater reward later. This album applies that concept to both love and finance....a peaceful, secure future built on patience, discipline, and the quiet confidence of choosing lasting value over fleeting pleasure.
Save Point. 3.00 AM
This album is a short story told in eleven parts, tracking a single evening from the moment a classic console powers on to the early hours of the morning. It's a journey through the distinct moods of a solo gaming session: the initial peace of a quiet room, the gentle challenge of a puzzle, the deep focus of a flow state, a quiet break for a midnight snack, the emotional weight of a cutscene, the creeping melancholy of a game's story, the surreal haze of exhaustion, the bittersweet feeling of completion, and the final, quiet power-down. Each track is a timestamp, a snapshot of a feeling. The console itself becomes a character, its sounds providing the rhythmic pulse that underpins the entire experience. It's a soundtrack for the focused, the lonely, the nostalgic, and anyone who has ever found a strange sense of comfort in the electronic hum of a screen after the world has gone to sleep.
After 5 PM
This album is a short story told in seven parts, tracking a single evening from 5:01 PM to the early hours of the morning. It's a journey through the distinct moods of a late-night work session: the initial peace of an empty office, the deep focus of a flow state, the creeping melancholy of solitude, the surreal haze of exhaustion, and the final, quiet commute home. Each track is a timestamp, a snapshot of a feeling. The office itself becomes a character, its sounds providing the rhythmic pulse that underpins the entire experience. It's a soundtrack for the focused, the lonely, the creative, and anyone who has ever found a strange sense of comfort in the hum of a machine after everyone else has gone home.
Siempre a mi Lado
"Siempre a mi Lado" (Always by my Side) is more than a collection of songs; it is a five-track tribute to a love that has spanned 46 years. The EP is dedicated to King, a beautiful German Shepherd who became a loyal friend and royal guardian to the artist at the age of five. Though their time together was in the past, his memory remains a vivid and formative presence.
Código Insular
"Vuelo 815" is more than an EP—it’s a six-track love letter to Gran Canaria. Each song captures a chapter in a cinematic journey: the dreamy anticipation of landing, the pulse of neon-lit road trips, the quiet joy of finding home in an unexpected place. Along the way, there’s discovery, connection, and that moment when the island’s light stops being external and becomes something you carry inside.This isn’t a playlist for a holiday. It’s the soundtrack to a life changed by a place and a person. It feels like warm wind through an open window on a midnight drive, the shared silence of someone who just gets you, and the steady rhythm of a heart finally anchored in paradise.
El Ruido en el Cristal
"El Ruido en el Cristal" is a five-track journey through the landscape of a young heart. The title refers to the distorted self-image we see when looking in the mirror, clouded by the "noise" of our own fears, anxieties, and the pressures of the outside world. The EP follows a distinct narrative arc, moving from compassionate reflection and paralyzing anxiety to defiant self-acceptance and, ultimately, cathartic liberation. It’s a story about finding the light within the cracks and learning to drive your own path.
TONE-DEAF
"TONE-DEAF" is a conceptual electronic-pop EP that serves as an experiment in AI collaboration. The project uses a single set of lyrics and one identical style prompt to generate three distinct versions of the same song: "Tone-deaf 0.1," "Tone-deaf 0.2," and "Tone-deaf 0.3."Instead of telling a story through changing genres, the EP explores the nature of digital creation itself. It demonstrates how, even with the exact same parameters, an AI generates unique nuances in each iteration subtle shifts in vocal delivery, synth texture, and rhythmic feel. The EP becomes an exploration of what "soul" means when the primary difference between takes is not human intention, but the compelling randomness of code. It intentionally blurs the line between the artist and the algorithm, asking the listener to consider what constitutes a "definitive version" in the age of infinite AI possibilities.
Proto-Language I. Vocal Genesis
Primal Hum begins with a whisper and a heartbeat. A lone voice rises—raw, untamed—then hangs in a wide electronic hush where only a slow kick and far-off clicks mark time. Each piece feels less like a track and more like an awakening, tracing the first contact between flesh and circuit. Rooted in Ethereal Downtempo and Atmospheric Vocal House, the record sidesteps any obvious groove and instead invites quiet focus: close your eyes, follow the vocal arcs, and listen for the moment the dream world springs to life. I hope these open spaces give you room to drift, reflect, and return lighter than you arrived.
Proto-Language 0. Primal Hum
This album is the prologue to the series, representing the pre-creation state. The sound is entirely a cappella, built from the human voice alone. There are no traditional instruments. The mood is serene, monastic, and atmospheric, evoking the feeling of a formless, primordial hum before the first structured melody is born. It is designed for deep listening, meditation, and quiet contemplation.
Laser eyes
Laser Eyes is a euphoric, 10-track journey through time and technology. Lyrically, it tells the optimistic story of a revolutionary new world being built, using the metaphors of digital scarcity and sovereignty. Musically, the album is a chronological tour of electronic dance music, with each track adopting the signature sound of a different era. From the stylish grooves of Nu-Disco to the celebratory energy of modern dance-pop. It is a celebration of vision, progress, and the relentless, joyful energy of looking forward.
Red
"Red" is a six-track EP that serves as a cinematic journey through the stages of profound heartbreak. It is an atmospheric and emotionally raw mood piece, designed for the modern listener. Each track explores a distinct facet of a relationship's collapse. From the initial shock and betrayal to the realization of deception, the paranoia of being manipulated, the ultimate wipeout, and the cynical aftertaste of false hope.The album's sound is intentionally sparse and intimate, built on a foundation of delicate felt piano, mournful string quartets, and vulnerable, exposed vocals. While the emotional narrative is universal, a hidden lyrical layer runs through the project, with each song's title and theme drawing a parallel to the language of market crashes, offering a subtle nod to those who can see the patterns.
Proof of love
"Proof of Love" is a ten-track concept album that tells an emotional love story. On the surface, it's a universal journey through the stages of a relationship: the initial spark, euphoric highs, devastating lows, quiet reflection, and ultimate, unbreakable commitment. Beneath the surface, it is a deeply personal ode to Bitcoin, with each song allegorically representing a phase in an investor's or believer's journey. It's designed to be felt by everyone, but truly understood by those who know. The title itself reflects this duality: a verifiable act of love, and a nod to the protocols that secure the network.
Prova di Lavoro (Proof of Work)
What if the 2008 Bitcoin whitepaper was not a dry academic paper, but a lost Italo Disco concept album from 1984? Welcome to Prova di Lavoro.
This 12 track odyssey by the human AI collective Pastiche-nouveau transforms the foundational text of cryptocurrency into a grand narrative. It is the gospel of decentralization, a story of cryptographic proof told through a retro futuristic lens.
The album's narrative follows the whitepaper's structure precisely. The journey begins with the melancholic atmosphere of "Introduzione," lamenting the flaws of trust based systems, before descending into the paranoid feeling of "Il Problema della Doppia Spesa." The solution emerges with the cold, robotic precision of "Server di Marcatura Temporale," which builds into the euphoric anthem of the title track, "Prova di Lavoro."
The second half of the album explores the system's implications, from the triumphant race of "La Catena Più Lunga" to the cool, confident groove of the finale, "Conclusione." The journey ends with the enigmatic farewell of "Satoshi," a mysterious and melancholic "last dance" that fades into the digital ether, leaving only the legend behind.
Algoritmo d'Amore
Picture 1985 on a Mediterranean coast, where the sun is a perfect geometric glow and the sea shimmers with digital light. Welcome to Algoritmo d'Amore.This 8-track odyssey by the human-AI collective Pastiche-nouveau fuses the pulsing heart of Italo Disco with tales of digital romance and cryptocurrency dreams. This is the “computational Riviera,” where nostalgic synths meet modern longing. From the shadowy noir of "Electric Ghost" to the euphoric rush of "Future Gold" and the hypnotic groove of "Danza Automatica," each track paints a scene of connection and code. A soulful ballad aches for a lost love, while the "Regina Cosmica" crowns the journey with cosmic triumph.With soaring Juno pads, driving basslines, and bilingual vocals, Algoritmo d'Amore is a dancefloor banger and a late-night reverie, crafted through a visionary human-AI partnership. Can true love spark in the circuits?
Fiat Fantasia
Fiat Fantasia is Pastiche nouveau’s shimmering love letter to centralized power, an album length act of polished propaganda that turns every critique of fiat money into a seductive virtue. Across ten tracks it bathes in the high gloss sound of late nineteen eighties Sophisti Pop, Eurodance, and sleek electro funk, painting infinite liquidity, technocratic control, and gentle inflation as kind gifts.Each song speaks in the voice of the system itself. The end of the gold standard becomes a heroic escape in "The Golden Chain Is Broken", quantitative easing appears as enlightened stewardship in "The Malleable Mandate", and a central bank digital currency is praised as utopian convenience in "Digital Dominion".The artwork centers on a monumental brutalist sculpture glowing in the middle of a pristine corporate plaza, a single image that captures both the lure and the threat of fiat’s promise. It adds up to an irresistibly catchy yet eerily hollow soundtrack that invites you to dance inside the machine while it quietly rewrites the rules.
Maximalist
Maximalist is a 10-track sonic manifesto celebrating decentralized freedom, sound money, and individual sovereignty. Each track is a bold movement, fusing 80s-inspired electronic grandeur (Eurodance, Italo Disco, Synthwave) with anthemic, contemporary energy, charting a journey from genesis to a new world of empowerment and hope.

Am I an Artist?
(Version 0.1.1)
Am I an Artist?I don’t really know what to call myself.
Artist? Musician? Creator? Dreamer?
Something like a “vibe coder” but for art. A vibe artist.The truth is, titles don’t interest me that much. Whether it’s “bedroom composer” or something else, that’s really up to the person experiencing the work. That label isn’t what gives it value.What others might call art or music, I create simply for myself. I know it’s a cliché, but I do this because it makes me feel better. This is a way of expressing myself that I’ve never had access to before, not in a way that has truly made a difference for me.In my 50+ years of life, I’ve never had a form of expression like this. And believe me, I’ve needed it.Suddenly, this door has opened, and with it comes a strange, surreal feeling:
“Can I really do all this?”
“Am I allowed to?”
“Me?”
“Am I worthy of creating?”
“Am I enough to create?”
AI — Not the End, The Beginning
I’m quite sure this isn’t the end of anything. It’s the beginning of something full of possibility.The rise of AI and new creative tools doesn’t close doors — it opens them. It’s a shift, not a replacement.There will always be a need, and a place, for legacy artists of all kinds. Just like with watchmakers, or hand weavers, or calligraphers, there’s something in the handcrafted, the deeply human, that won’t and shouldn’t be replaced.If anything, I believe it will become even more valuable. Because in a world where many things can be generated in seconds, what is made with time, patience, and presence gains new weight.
Not despite AI and new tools, but because of them.
A Note on This Text
Nothing in this document is final. Like everything I create, like everything I am, it’s in motion.Did I write this text with the help of AI? Yes, I did. AI is an essential part of how I share word-based work with the world. Clear writing always takes me a few extra passes, and these tools help me shape thoughts into something I’m ready to share.Writing has never been my main medium. What I do have are thoughts, ideas, and emotions, and this process helps me turn them into something others can read.Once again, AI is simply a tool. Like when WordPerfect helped me structure text neatly on a printed page, this is just the next evolution.I’ve gone through every sentence thoroughly. Every word in this version represents my thoughts.Does that make me less authentic? I don’t think so.
It means I found a way to speak. And that, too, is a kind of art. 🧡
