Paper and analysis of internal Clock by Monolake
Benjamin Ramsay · Staffordshire Online Repository (Staffordshire University) · 2012
Monolake’s ‘Internal Clock’ was released on the 2009 album ‘Silence’ on the Imbalance Computer Music label from Berlin, Germany. The piece is an outstanding example of where contemporary dance music, which some might call electronica or IDM, crosses over with acousmatic composition traditions. This paper aims to explore how we might apply current acousmatic music theory to explain some of the sounds, shapes and arrangements within the field of IDM and less conventional forms of electronic dance music. The paper also had an associated analysis published on the Online Repository for Electroacoustic Music Analysis (OREMA) website.
