We're all sitting here and no one's listening. We're just talking over each other while the world spins out of control. Who are you gonna believe if the walls were gone? If everything turned up empty fields? Us just standing around looking at each other and nothing blocking us or protecting us from each other or from ourselves. I'm at war with myself first. Let …
A Book of Waves
"After playing together for years, our tide was turning. What began as a happy rhythm of show dates in Berlin, from cozy trios in Klaus’ home studio to ten-piece ensembles at Ausland, was now ebbing away thanks to Andy’s move to the US. Whenever an accustomed pattern shifts it can take time to readjust, to find the gravity that will pull to shape an orbit again. What had been working well between us remained on both our minds for a few years after: the tension between complimentary forms and ref…

I’m going to have to ask you to
*Dubbed on new ferro tapes* One long composition for each side. Reminding me of an ultra-stretched version of the beautiful interplays on talktalk’s spirit of eden. Brittle percussive repetitions and muted trumpets slowly maneuvering into lovely tensions.
Compiled loops & experiments
*Dubbed on new ferro tapes* Tape loops, wind-up gramophone manipulations, and other audio fascinations. All of these sounds share the fact that they didn’t fit into any other release. Collected throughout 2024 and 2025, they were set aside on my harddrive. This is a documentation of scrap material, assembled in rough form.
Erica
A collection of photographs of everyday life, just passing by, on a constant search for those minimal hidden details, mysterious, yet full of awareness, meditative yet bristling with fervor. Mira’s debut for Maple Death ‘Erica’ reveals the artist’s constant transformation, a dense collection of six melancholy vignettes that spin cinematic neo-classical minimalism into slow-tranced lullabies and ancient folklore chants. Based between Rome and Torino the violinist and composer is a beloved figure …

For Jack
For Jack was written in 2024 for pianist Jack Yarbrough. I was inspired by Jack’s many performances of my music; how he approaches my soundworld with a beauty of touch and an attention to pacing. This piece is approximately 50 minutes long and, with a few exceptions, it is extremely quiet and spacious. Many thanks to Jack for asking me to write this piece and for playing it so beautifully.
Jack Yarbrough is a pianist working in the fields of contemporary and experimental music. Largely devoted t…
