{"product_id":"asterion","title":"Asterion","description":"\u003cp\u003eAsterion is a 54-minute analog journey I composed and played live in my home studio over two days.\r\u003cbr\u003e\r\u003cbr\u003eIt began with the atmosphere of early Berlin School in mind, but quickly found its own direction - drifting synths, pulsing sequencers, Mellotron-like textures from the Moog One, ambient guitar, tape, and a long experimental passage that became the heart of the album.\r\u003cbr\u003e\r\u003cbr\u003eThe final track, Kalinychta, means “good night.” It felt like the only way to close the journey.\r\u003cbr\u003e\r\u003cbr\u003eEverything was recorded through two TEAC reel-to-reel tape machines and mixed on two TEAC Model 5 analog consoles. The whole album was performed live, without building it piece by piece or arranging it afterward inside a computer.\r\u003cbr\u003e\r\u003cbr\u003eI simply followed the music for two days and let it become what it wanted to become.\r\u003cbr\u003e\r\u003cbr\u003eI’ve also included the full 53-minute gapless version for anyone who wants to hear Asterion as one uninterrupted journey.\r\u003cbr\u003e\r\u003cbr\u003eNext Friday, I’ll be premiering the full live video on YouTube, and I’ll be there in the chat with you.\r\u003cbr\u003e\r\u003cbr\u003eThank you for listening and for continuing to travel through these little worlds with me.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Caught In Joy","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52887074406720,"sku":"album-Asterion","price":9.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0870\/4494\/8288\/files\/cover_b2b0d2f2-b7f8-4209-b07d-5efd4ddb15b0.jpg?v=1785493170","url":"https:\/\/caughtinjoy.com\/products\/asterion","provider":"Caught In Joy","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
