About Me

My Photo
Coming from a Background of classical music education Oliver Stummer learned the Violon-Cello for 13 and, less classical but more rock and roll, the (electric) guitar for seven years and had training in harmony and songwriting. he turned to computer music production in 1997, and has since then produced various releases, both under his own alias Tomoroh Hidari (and others) and with/for respected artists and newcomers. Oliver Stummer has made music for Advertisments, Theater, Radio and short films and is constantly up for new adventures... While always aiming at perfection, he tries to avoid loosing personal touch and musical innuendo by resorting to technical show-offs. It is rather about trying to take things to extremes, where the moment of personal excitement and surprise is the boundary to constantly push. Check out the links to hear what it's all about: MUSIC!! ------- Besides keeping you up to date on my work, I will post the occasional article voicing my thoughts on aspects of music making and/or about music technology.

Tomoroh Hidari - And Music Became Its Own Grandma... (DVR042) - free album out now for download!

I have a new album under my tomoroh hidari alias out on international label/artist collective Digital Vomit. (I got into contact with these fine people when i played my dublin gig). I allready contributed tracks to some of the fine (often themed) compilations Digital Vomit have released, and this is my debut full length release on that label.
7 Tracks I improvised live during various concert appearances, which are mostly in a mid-to-downtempo realm, somewhat inspired by electro and techno, with glitch-, microsound- and ambient influences and dubby basslines/delay effects.

Here's the link: Digital Vomit

here's what you're too afraid to ask:
Release date: 'p 24. (St. Pissedoux, caporal of free men) Tatane 136 (E.V. 06 Aug. 2009)
Pressing: unlimited MP3 album
All tracks were programmed, improvised and performed during different live-acts by Tomoroh Hidari
'p 129 - 134 (E.V. 2002-2007)
Even though originating from times before the private 'pataphysical turn of Nemo von Nirgends,
this was compiled and remastered at The Delusory 'Pataphysical Institute of Whateverism 'p 136 (E.V. 2009)
Titles were inserted afterwards and are therefore not Pataphors….
