Someone could argue the value of keeping a Netlabel alive this days. Many are the reasons to move to other spheres, media or formats but sometimes, there are a projects that by the nature of it, bring along a sense of coherence to what we do.  Even that the concept behind Ilir Lluka's work is not about that, a certain aspect of it, it is. This is maybe the use of a very short span of time to develop a piece of work such as "An Étude In Two Variations" that only last 10 minutes.  By its shortness, one thinks that a net-release is the best way to present this kind of work, and we are glad to find again reasons to keep supporting this kind of craft.

"An Étude In Two Variations" is a two track album. Both pieces are the outcome of an exercise in composition in which Lluka stablished a common begining for both pieces and a certain set of timbers that would shape both compositions as similar. The only difference between both pieces is the sound source of each. The first one uses a japanese koto and electronics, and the second a custom made synthesizer (a mixture of Nord modular patches combined with a virtual synthesizer designed by himself). Both compositions follow more or less the same compositional line but each one in its own character, similar timbers but unexpected and distant outcomes.
