88 ENEMIES is a potentially infinite series of compositions which sound almost like contemporary piano music.

 

These first eight parts,  conceived as a self-contained cycle, were composed and recorded between October 1996 and June 1997. Apart from the radio in part 5, the only sound  used is the Proteus grand piano. I've used filters and effects to transform this basic sound in some of the pieces, and multiple sequencers to  transform the playing. The title of the series describes my relationship with the keyboard. Inspiration came from the piano works of Stockhausen, Boulez, Cage, Feldman and Nancarrow. The beautiful works of art were painted by Abra Cadaver. Editing and balancing was by Charlie Collins.
