Hi, I’m Rudiger Meyer, a composer interested in the play between music, sound, and media. This site, my home on the web, is part documentation, part experimental playground. It is also a place for writing – from notes & tweets to more extensive articles.
Since 2019 I’ve also been involved in creating and helping establish a platform for poetic podcasts (mostly in Danish). I’ve written about the process of creating some of those productions here.
Listening Back, a mixtape for Don’t Look Back Records:
Sounds of 80s experimental pop that echo Stockhausen’s electronic works from the 50s. The test equipment used to create those first studies, revived to once again create music today. Environmental sounds from South Africa recreated in the WDR studio in Cologne in the 70s. Minimal music from the WDR studio in Cologne in the 70s. Pianos in Italy. Songs from Iran over the shortwaves. Vibrations ‘in the air’, fusing together.
