Resonating Bodies
Pure tones through physical resonators
Recorded at Berlin’s Funkhaus, Resonating Bodies explores pure tones through physical resonators, blending instrument and object into rich, organic textures with deep sonic nuance.

About the instrument
A bass clarinet hums at the center, low tones vibrating against wood, metal, and air. A cello stretches across the room, strings trembling against sympathetic neighbors, overtones folding back on themselves. A modular synth threads through it all, bending and weaving into the acoustic layers. Recorded at Berlin’s Funkhaus, where every wall, floor, and surface participates in the sound.
Transducers pull vibrations into corners, across edges, into objects never meant to speak, letting metal plates, drums, and strings respond in unexpected ways. Every take behaves differently, echoes curve, textures shift, collisions create patterns that feel alive without over-explaining themselves. No electronics are needed for the acoustic voices, but the synth adds quiet waves and hums, nudging the instruments toward new forms.
Produced in collaboration with Yair Elazar Glotman, each instrument is captured in dialogue with the space around it. Deep tones resonate, sigh, and insist on attention; textures fold, drift, and overlap. Every note transforms, sometimes decays, sometimes stretches, always alive with movement. The room leans in, curious, as acoustic and electronic worlds collide without friction. Every patch, every recording, tells a story the instrument didn’t know it could tell. Ideal for scoring, ambient compositions, experimental work, and hybrid sound design.
Moments emerge that feel both structured and accidental, textures weaving a conversation between sound and space. Each layer, each resonance, becomes part of a living network—subtle, surprising, and endlessly generative. A series for composers seeking depth, nuance, and the rich interplay of acoustic and electronic voices.
