Cloudwalk
Cloudwalk is the ambient and electronic music project of Montana musician Paul Mehlhaff. He creates electronic space music in an improvisational style, performing on various analog, digital, and virtual synthesizers. His music can be more on the melodic side of ambient music, with influences from new age, Berlin School, jazz, and techno.
He was born in Elmont, New York in 1971, but moved to Billings, Montana at the age of seven. Shortly after graduating from the University of Montana in 1993, Mehlhaff moved back to Billings, Montana and started building his project studio.
For several years, he had been experimenting with many different types of music, including techno, technofunk, new wave, new age, ambient, space music, and classical, folk, and rock guitar before merging many of these eclectic influences into one project. The result centered around ambient space music, and in 2008, he started developing the Cloudwalk sound.
Mehlhaff released his first album as Cloudwalk in 2013, "Skyscapes," followed by "Age of Discovery," and "MidWinter" in 2014, and "Song of Night, Song of Light" in 2016.
Although Mehlhaff has created precomposed tracks with sequencing and overdubbing, much of the Cloudwalk material is actually recorded live-to-stereo in an improvisational manner, with very little musical editing. Mehlhaff accomplishes this by performing on multiple keyboards at the same time to control a collection of analog, digital, and virtual synthesizers. Read more on Last.fm.
