Cassian Voss
Cassian Voss plays upright piano in an Edinburgh flat at two in the morning, with the window open and the street below. His songs never leave the home key—the tension lives in the not-moving.
The suspended fourth
“Minor Key” ends on an unresolved major seventh. “The tension lives within the not-moving,” Voss says. “The bus at 0:22 evolves, but the chord does not.”
Room tone as instrument
Recorded on one microphone above middle C, with the piano lid open. The room itself became an instrument.
