about

What does music smell like? Can you have a memory of a scent? I asked myself these questions during the recording session of "The Impression of a Memory", listening to almost finished compositions while walking in the evening hours.
We love what is fleeting, mainly sounds and smells. The same strong emotions evoke memories in us. By combining these things, we get a mixture of something sophisticated on the one hand, and extremely difficult to grasp on the other. While the memories of a melody accompany us every day, the smell is difficult to recall exactly. We know more or less what it was: sweet, fresh, intense, but we can't recall it exactly as he was. We only think we remember it. We remember some details about it, but not the smell itself.
Just as a fragrance can have many notes, also memories of music can have many layers. I've always liked to capture moments, but the photos themselves are not able to accurately reflect the mood. Appropriate sounds are a good complement, but there is still no fragrance to be fully satisfied.
I undertook an abstract task to present smells, that accompany us in the evening and night time, through sounds. When the clouds create a peculiar and poignant landscape, or when the sky is already completely black.
