NEW ALBUM PATHWAYS
I've worked with the iconic TB-303 with its unmistakable sonic signature, filled with the warmth, energy
and character that defined the acid house movement of the late 80s. The TB-303 was widely misunderstood
when it launched in 1981, but a true revolution began some years later when young electronic
music producers discovered the discarded box and its hypnotic, fluid sound that captured a generation.

MONOTONE
A sonic exploration into music production, where processed vocals are a minimalist art form, in a carefully selected machine park of synth and glitch. Phtalo distills an experimental approach of dynamic sound and versatile composition into stunning works suspended between detailed sonic tapestries and gestural electronica. Touching upon styles and genres like IDM, house and ambient, bent and wired into a new and contemporary sound.
Monotone is released by Cristian Vogel’s imprint Endless Process.
MY HOUSE IN YOUR HAUS
Let me take you to through the wires of electronic music. Synths shall be played and synths shall be shared! My name is Phtalo aka Mortenson and I’m gonna delve into the joy of discovering electronic music from back when drum machines became available to young people with bedroom studios and back when electronic composers were lab people dressed in white coats. All the way up to now and the near future. I'll reveal a line up of electrified inspiration through the decades. We’ll talk about the tracks played and nerd out a little on the music production. Mostly I’ll fill up your haus with house and electronic magic. Feel free to dance in the kitchen, soothe your mood while working, or just cool & calm sway your thoughts while on the U-bahn. Welcome to a place for music lovers of all genders & colors. Mi casa es tu casa, let’s get electric!

ECHOLALIA MIXTAPE
My new official mixtape is named after a curious behaviour with which I've become acquainted for the past 10 years. Sometimes it's entertaining, other times it's simply reflective.
Echolalia is the repetition of words or sounds spoken by others. In some cases, echolalia seems completely out of context. In many cases, echolalia is an attempt to learn or practice language. Echolalia is reflective of how the speaker process information.
