about

Last year, composer and visual artist Marcus Herne made his first contribution to the day with the release of his track ’88’, a many layered ambient drone that builds and cascades, using only the piano as a sound source. It was a very spontaneous decision to write the piece, which resulted in Herne only having a day to compose, mix and master the track before its release.

This year Herne wanted to release another piece using solely the piano as the primary sound source. 88.II builds upon similar techniques used in the prior release, but with the addition and stronger reliance on distortion and compression, resulting in this years track having a far heavier, and more aggressive sound. Many of these compositional and production techniques are ones that can be heard throughout Marcus Herne’s discography, and he thought it was the best way in which to capture and present the power and beauty of the piano.

‘The piano is such a powerful and diverse sound source, it’s sonic breadth provides endless possibilities, and I am always surprised where I end up’.
