About
The central work Tracks is also the earliest one (composed 1998, revised 2006) - a kind of journey, as the title suggests, within a dense and accumulating polyrhythmic expression.
The two surrounding groups of pieces extend from this in two different directions - the opening White Bone Country (2006) towards reduced sound-reveries in processed piano and small metal percussion; the succeeding Mirages (2007) into pure sonic fantasies made from sampled sounds of prepared piano.
Fundamental to the language of all Byrne's pieces are pulsations, from which varied melodic motives and overlaid rhythmic meters can be drawn. In this respect his approach differs from other landscape-orientated music based on drones and evolving fields of sound, along with their opposite, flurries of irregular disjunct rhythms.
