about

Three part composition for DX7, processed percussion and piano.

Careful never to remain on one trajectory for long, this work is concerned with multiple viewpoints, circling around itself and perceiving its own activity from shifting positions.

The distinctive metallic, glassy FM of the DX7 coalesces with spectrally processed gong, bells, bowls and piano fragments to form shimmering clouds of pulsing tonality and minute timbral modulation intercut with silence and periods of near stasis. Now advancing, now receding – overlap, interruption, cessation.

This work emerged from a long germination period and some of its elements have previously appeared in installation and live performance, notably "DAXA: Half Crystallised But Still Breathing" as part of Dennis McNulty’s TTOPOLOGY at Visual Carlow (2018) and "David Donohoe Live at the RHA" as part of MADE IN DUBLIN with Eamonn Doyle, Niall Sweeney and Kevin Barry, St Patrick’s Festival (2019)

These compositions utilise DAXA, a translator/catalyst for the Yamaha DX7, designed and implemented by Dennis McNulty in collaboration with David Donohoe.
