#3✦ᖗ CLAIRE KELP - Echo Omega

Enjoy my second tape which is a lofi adventure that depicts a subaquatic world i had so much pleasure dive into last winter ! I composed this tape with only two machines from 2002, a Japanese synth from 1988 and a small device whose circuit I soldered myself to record my voice. It was a challenge to compose with limited equipment, but I like to set constraints and see how creativity emerges (echoing this minimal spirit, for the cover, i only used a blue pencil). The sound of the early 2000s inspires me a lot, nostalgic atmospheric electronics and dnb. This tape carries within it a tribute to this era mixed with personal vaporwave and dub influences and way too many hours playing the video game Subnautica.

For hardware enthusiasts, here's the material i used :

Korg's Electribe mk2 drum machine
Korg's Microkorg
Yamaha's PSR-36
Claire Kelp's DIY on-board computer simulator.

#1✦ᖗ OPAL SWORD - Healing Beats

Opal Sword is my pre-Claire Kelp project !

Known as an experimental cloud rap project. You can listen to the two rap tapes i've dropped on my Bandcamp and also on every plateforms ! But I think that the Healing Beats tape, which is an instrumental ambient one, is the corner stone between the Opal Sword and the Kelp eras !
