about

pascal is fascinated by non-verbal communication through sound and the expression in improvised music and dedicates his research to this field of music-making.

rooted in the tradition of the drumset, he frees his music, his role within and his playing from conventions – thinking and researching outside the box – not relying on expected structures and pre-walked paths but stretching his and the instrument’s boundaries every time.
he does so by extending his sound palette using all kinds of mallets, sticks, tools, add-ons and more, to produce new, rich textures and colours – ranging from horizontal drony sounds to very pointy and vertical action fields.
pushing his boundaries is a constant companion.
