The two tracks here are stereo recordings of the Layering Buddha Live six channel performance. The first recording is from the premiere, January 31 2007 at Maria am Ufer during the Club Transmediale festival in Berlin, and the second file is from a performance recorded on November 22 2008 in Poznan, Poland.

The material for Layering Buddha Live is derived from material I created for the Layering Buddha CD & Vinyl release. During the performance the audience is placed in between a ring of six speakers with the performer sitting in the center. The layers of sound are dynamically distributed in space, providing an experience of being located inside a deep morhing and breathing sonic cloud. The performance is held in complete darkness, allowing the audience to fully focus on the sound.

The recordings here mainly serve as document of something much bigger and cannot really capture the quality and sonic density of the live performance. However, they sound surprisingly cool and this is why I decided to make them public. The first recording has some clippings and other technical flaws, which I left it in to keep it real. If you have two or more computers running in the same room try playing back the same recording on all of them, starting them at different times....
