Things – even great things – are imperfect. But, when considered in context, and in space, they can still be appreciated. Reflections on surfaces, delayed over time, give rise to a variety of perceptions. By seeing the signal in the noise generated by the signal, we acknowledge the signal for both what it is and what it can be.
Featuring flute and effects.
Sometimes, we live. Sometimes, we rush, headlong into the many of the many and the concerns of the lesser and the greater and the in-between.
Sometimes, we live. Sometimes, we speed, from this to that to this again and this other this that was not even a that which we thought of.
Sometimes, we live. Sometimes – we breathe.
Featuring piano and orchestral strings.
Pickups and Porsches, on the same street,
>From the left and the right, in the middle they meet,
One belies labor, and one portrays wealth –
Both reflect life and all that is dealth.
Featuring a pickup, a Porsche, and effects.
About the track:
This composition was created for the “Stop all wars” compilation by “attenuation circuit” netlabel. You can listen to the entire compilation here emerge.bandcamp.com/album/–3
This track contains multiple field recordings such as me and my colleagues ignoring occasional air raid alert or me and my son discussing that air raids and explosions are over.
About the cover art:
I took this picture in Chernivtsi at the beginning of russian full-scale invasion. This was a time when many families were separated and these words resonated in me. The credit goes to whoever wrote this on the wall.
The Third Policeman was recorded live, without any overdubs, using computer, MIDI keyboard, and controller / 2025.
The album is a subtle allusion to Flann O’Brien’s absurdist novel The Third Policeman, reflecting its surreal and enigmatic atmosphere through sound.
There’s something strange – and clearly, not good. Life, stifled. Free expression, caged.
The next chapter is unwritten. Consider picking up a pen.
Featuring clarinet.
Finally, the origin is discovered – the home planet of counterpoint, the source of fugues. It was always implausible that such balanced beauty was chained to one planet – and now we confirm that these semi-symmetric vibrations are at home throughout the universe.
Featuring Bach’s otherworldly organ prelude BWV 649, chromatically shifted and with effects.

Dedicated to those who are changing everything with their wholeheartedly love.
Near, yet far – clear, yet tar. Square choruses roundly abound, whilst reaching angels fail to see. Grasp this – that explorations are manifold, within and without.
Featuring clarinet and effects.
Prior to performance, preparation is peremptory. Scalar approaches, diatonic and chromatic, essentially apply. Yet strange resonances also insert – and are just as necessary.
Featuring synthesizers and percussion.
Symmetry is not always obvious. Something can be symmetrical across more than one dimension – odd, but still beautiful.
Featuring synthesizers, percussion, electric guitar, arpeggiator, and Hammond B3 organ.

The Necrophile Hummingbird netlabel presents Curse Of Knowledge by Invisible Illusion.
Analogic musical improvisation recorded live in the 5th December 2024 at the Cave Haven in Foucherans. (The Cave Haven is dead but The Possible Field is back…)
Special Thanks to Wilhelm Richard Wagner for the music.
And to Poussière d’étoile d’araignée, our home rabbit, who drew the artwork.
In December 2024 it was no more possible to download the netlabel albums on internet archive. So I added all my 5 Bandcamp profiles here https://www.horsnorme.org (Also if you are not afraid by the changes you may check Subvert the own by artists alternative…) It’s fixed since but it was quite heavy to our little musical community to do not know the future at this time. Sad. Not the better days. Thanks so much for your interest in Free Music.
Dedicated to the team and the donators who are keeping the Internet Archive alive.
In May 2025 I moved from Foucherans to Dole, not that far, but really different. I’m still running Radio Free Albemuthorsnorme audioblog despite it’s now open to name your price and pay what you want zero include albums. And the web radio will be back on air in a few days…
Tilting saints has meanings two – it could refer to saints askew. But “tilting at” could also be our purpose: challenge the holy.
This 5/4 version of “When The Saints Go Marching In” features clarinet, xylophone, shakers, synthesizers, trumpet, melodica, cello, and drum machine.
