Abstract
The aim of this project is to emphasize the main features in my musical background that were partially present in my past work, but never clearly in focus. As a producer and guitarist, I want to spotlight both my guitar expertise and my producer skills to create a distinct sound, and I did so by creating a producer playlist that emphasizes the contrast between instinctive improvised ideas coming from guitar and rigid patterns derived from minimalism. I was encouraged to use the guitar as my artistic voice in multiple valuable feedback sessions, so I decided to enrich the songs with an original guitar system for which I designed a tuning. The minimal production/ improvisation contrast and this original system will be not only at the core of my refined artistic identity, but also of my career plans, which are described in detail.
