Alzheimer's disease is the most common cause of dementia, a general term for memory loss and other cognitive abilities, serious enough to interfere with daily life. Loss of short-term memory is one of the most common initial symptoms. Several studies confirmed that music affects the brain in different ways; it doesn't just help retrieve stored memories, it also helps lay down new ones.
Inspired by this fact, Memory Loss is comprised of two compositions based on repeated patterns that create a sense of the familiar. By removing the expectation of time, constitutes a proposal to (re-) experience the very essence of things, in a tranquil but yet salient and adventurous way. Keeping clear the main composing idea in the foreground, embedded in the brain, layers are added gradually creating multiplicities and tone combinations that lead the compositions into new aural terrains.
Instruments like the Model:Cycles synth have been extended with supercollider programming in an effort to remove the time and quantisation limitations of their sequencers and provide sounds richer in timbre and dynamics as well as organically evolving structures. The first part is based on sets of waves forming islands and constellations, seemingly repeating but never quite the same, creating a fluctuating space for the clarinet and other elements to evolve. In the second part, as a complementary element to the first but on higher intervals and pitch, the piano is setting the main theme. Here several pitch tracking and audio analysis algorithms have been used to add on the spectrum of the piano tones and slowly extend it in all dimensions. Though time can be perceived vertically and what is before or after doesn’t really matter. Music can work in all scales more like a body experience and less as a cognitive process.

This album is dedicated for those who suffer for memory loss
