Tigerforest
Into the Deepsea of Sound...
The musical world of Gunnar Spardel: Tigerforest
Music means much more to me than playing white and black keys together in some harmonious or disharmonious accordance and order. It`s more than making impressive eclectic soundscapes or sequences with some content. Music is my life. Music is my playground of emotions and at each time the mirror of my innermost being.
The very first time I came into contact with a keyboard was already at the age of 12 when I began to take keyboard lessons. Unfortunately it took more than further 3 years till I finally came into contact with my first synthesizer. That was in late 1995. I was already very familiar with the world of electronic music for years. After nearly two years of pure "experiments" and technically not well equiped I started to compose my own music and today with a look over my shoulders, I see that was definitly the right decision for me.
The musical "roots" of Tigerforest, among others, can be found in the musicgenres chill out, trance, house and ambient. From these "roots" in Electronic Music Tigerforest developed his own musical style, without sticking to the "rules" of dedicated genres. Therefore the music of Tigerforest cannot easily be put into one of the common genre-drawers such as Trance, Ambient, Pop, Jazz, Avantgarde, Classical or Electronic.
For me the search for new forms of musical expression and sounds is a vital part in creating new music. To achieve this, every tool is welcome, be it electronic or acoustic, natural or artificial, analogue or digital. Next to the elements rhythm, melodie or harmony, the sound is equally part of the composition. On the search for new musical sounds and structures one thing is especially important for my music: the music should be accessible to the listener, touching his emotions. In many parts of these days Dance or Electronic Music the main purpose of music moves too far into the background. Music is made for listening to, it must have a meaning. The listener must be able to emotionally experience the music, otherwise the music becomes insignificant, meaningless, becomes a noise. Read more on Last.fm.
