Impossible Piano is a collection of AI generative MIDI piano pieces, merged with field recordings sourced from New York throughout 2021 and accompanied by visuals shot by Karolina Lisowski.
Split in two sides and referencing artists such as Ryuichi Sakamoto, Tim Hecker and Taylor Brook, it constitutes a complete narrative oscillating between structure and texture respectively.
The main project is a compositionally driven affair, welcoming the listener with a deceptively simple motif that progressively complexifies and expands into something new yet altogether reminiscing of its core. Unconcerned with sonic deviations for the entirety of its 4-track duration, it stands out as a presentation of delicate arrangements.
"Lullaby Mix" shifts the focus to a refined layering of found sounds submerged in minimalist piano ambience. Sounds sourced from trains, electric currents and material interaction, illuminated by occasional glimpses of melody, comprised in a single music piece.
