"I have often been asked what artists and albuns are of influence to me
and although I am an avid consumer of music
I am ultimately a fan of sound in a much grander sense
the rain falling, the ocean swelling, the wind picking up,
cars driving by, train yards, box fans, etc ... etc ... etc ...
the amalgamation of these things creates a wonderful comfort to me
and it is in this 'static' that ideas for music suggest themselves
the mixture of these elements create the chord changes and melodies,
or are the foundation through which they are sought
I find nothing more comforting
than the flood of this vibration at a constant
Static Nocturne is an ode
to the process by which inspiration finds me
and an homage, of sorts, to this foundation of noise"

A caracterização, perfeita, fica feita pelo próprio.
Permitir-me-ia apenas acrescentar que "Static Nocturne" é talvez o mais visionário dos trabalhos do autor. As fronteiras são o kraut e a música de vanguarda. Entre elas existe tudo, até o silêncio.
A edição original, manual, numerada e completamente esgotada, contemplou apenas 200 exemplares.
